Yesterday was Makar Sankranti festival. It has man Yesterday was Makar Sankranti festival. It has many names as it is celebrated throughout India as a harvest festival. I missed kite flying and eating Chikki (nut brittle) from terrace done during the festival. Instead of making Chikki, I adapted recipe of Black sesame babka from @mollyyeh via @foodnetwork to make eggless babka with white sesame seeds and jaggery. Babka is a yeasted Jewish coffee cake filled with cinnamon or chocolate. The crunchy bits on top taste like Chikki. #sesameseeds #jaggery #babka #makarsankranti #utrayan #chikki #kiteflying
