Bobbatlu recipe with step by step photos and video. Bobbatlu also known as Obbattu or Holige is one of the sweets that is made during festivals like Ugadi, Ganesh Chaturthi and Gudi Padwa.

In Telugu language, these flatbreads are known as bobbatlu or bobbatu. In Kannada language, they are called Holige or Obbattu. A similar variation becomes the Puran Poli of Maharashtrian cuisine.
Generally maida (all purpose flour) is used to make the outer covering, which helps in making thin bobbatlu. In this recipe I have used half-half of all purpose flour (maida) and whole wheat flour. This recipe is different from the Puran poli recipe I had shared earlier.
For the stuffing of this classic South Indian sweet flatbread, I have used split, husked Bengal gram (chana dal), jaggery, cardamom powder and nutmeg powder. You can even prepare the stuffing with split, husked pigeon pea lentils (tuvar dal) and give the nutmeg a miss, in case you don’t have it at home.
