About Egg appam

Egg Appam is a South Indian breakfast dish that combines the light, fluffy texture of appam, a fermented rice and coconut pancake, with a protein-packed egg. Originating from Kerala cuisine, it’s typically made by cracking an egg into the appam’s soft center and cooking until the edges are crispy and the egg is set. Appams are naturally gluten-free, providing easy digestibility and a good source of carbohydrates from rice. The egg adds high-quality protein, vitamins B12 and D, and healthy fats, making it a balanced dish for energy and muscle repair. Coconut in the batter contributes medium-chain triglycerides, known for boosting metabolism. However, Egg Appam’s health profile depends on preparation methods; using excessive oil or pairing it with heavy, coconut-rich curries can increase calorie content. Overall, Egg Appam offers a nutritious start to the day, blending traditional flavors with wholesome ingredients.
