Bhapa pitha is a traditional recipe of West Bengal & Calcutta mostly prepared to give winter a warm & lavish welcome! Although Bengalis love making Pitha throughout the whole year but Bhapa Pitha is a true relish during a nice, cool, windy weather. The word 'Bhapa' implies that the Pithas (or pancakes) are steamed & with the combination of coconut & jaggery this Pitha is an absolute treat for your taste buds! Do give it a try!
