I decided to try something different. Since cold ugali with tea in the morning is already a kind of favourite here, I said why not elevate the ugali and make it a sweet snack that can even be eaten alone while offering health benefits? Hence sweet ugali snack was born. It has sorghum flour, wholemeal maize flour, and lots of other delicious components! #flourchallenge #milletflour #maizeflour
