I am using my favorite Appe Pan / Paniyaram pan / Aebleskiver pan... this pan has so many names .I just love making no fry items in this pan for a healthier alternative than deep frying which the traditional way of  making them. I started my journey as a food blogger due to the Appe Pan's healthier no fry option. Its an amazing thing and I wanted my friends and colleagues to know about the options to deep frying and enjoying their favorite recipes guilt free.
