The Janmashtami prasad- Panjiri is made with several nutritious ingredients, including ghee, dry fruits, coriander seeds, lotus seeds, almonds, cardamon, and some powdered sugar—which we will replace with stevia, so as to retain the sweet component without spiking Blood Sugar Levels (BSL). The seeds are added to replace grains, which are proscribed during fasts—again, this has health benefits, especially for diabetics.
