Bajra Cake Recipe With Dates (Eggless, Gluten-Free Cake by Ravneet Bhalla)

 Bajra cake with dates is a delicious Bajra flour recipe for my gluten-intolerant friends. whether you are looking for a millet flour recipe for cake or an eggless Bajra cake, try out this one-bowl cake recipe. Bajra is a highly nutritous millet; however, there are a lot of anti-nutrients and phytates in pearl millet, which limit the bioavailability of its minerals. Soaking, sprouting, and roasting can help reduce the phytates and anti-nutrients in bajra while improving the bioavailability of iron and magnesium along with other minerals. Besides, bajra is packed with antioxidants, which makes it a go-to millet for those on a cancer diet. Phenolic compounds are known to play a role in suppressing tumor development.  Which is better jowar or bajra? Pearl millet has a larger percentage of germ out of the total kernel than that of sorghum. That means bajra has higher protein and lower starch than jowar.   Research  statistics reveal 17.4% germ in pearl millet compared with 9.8% in sorghum.
