What is bajra flour?
Bajra (Pennisetum glaucum), or pearl millet, has been grown in India for thousands of years and is a staple across Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Haryana. Pearl millet flour is the whole grain milled fine. Its names in Indian languages:
- Hindi: bajra (bajre ka atta) · Gujarati: bajri · Kannada: sajje · Telugu: sajja · Tamil: kambu
Nutrition (per 100g, approx.)
- Iron: about 8mg, around double that of whole wheat atta (about 4mg)
- Protein: 11.6g
- Magnesium: 137mg · Zinc: 3.1mg
- Naturally gluten-free
How to make bajra roti
- Mix 1 cup of bajra flour with a pinch of salt.
- Add warm water a little at a time and knead into a soft dough. Knead well with the heel of your hand.
- Make a ball and pat it out between your palms or on a wet cloth.
- Cook on a hot tawa, sprinkle a little water on top, flip and finish over the flame. Serve with ghee, jaggery or garlic chutney.
Tip: mix in 20% jowar flour or whole wheat atta if you find pure bajra dough hard to shape.
More ways to use bajra atta
- Bajra bhakri and thepla: with methi or spinach.
- Bajra khichdi and raab: traditional winter dishes in Rajasthan and Gujarat.
- Multigrain rotis: blend with jowar and ragi flour, or try our mixed millet flour (five millets including bajra and jowar).

Which pack should I buy?
Choose a single 500g pack to try it, or 1kg (2 × 500g) for regular use. Smaller packs keep the flour fresh.
Frequently asked questions
Is bajra flour the same as pearl millet flour?
Yes. Bajra is the Hindi name for pearl millet, so bajra atta, bajre ka atta and pearl millet flour are the same thing.
Is bajra flour gluten-free?
Yes. Bajra is naturally gluten-free.
Why should bajra flour be used quickly?
Bajra has more natural oil than most grains, so its flour can turn bitter if kept too long. Store it airtight, keep it cool (refrigerate in summer) and use within 4–6 weeks of opening.

Bajra bhakri is a thick, unleavened flatbread traditional to Maharashtra and Gujarat. Knead bajra flour with hot water into a stiff dough. Pat into thick circles (bajra lacks gluten, so it cannot be rolled thin) and cook on a heavy tawa over medium heat until the surface dries and spots char slightly. Serve with ghee, jaggery or dry garlic chutney.
Bajra is traditionally a winter grain in Rajasthan, Gujarat and Maharashtra, where bajra roti with ghee and jaggery, bajra khichdi and raab are classic cold-weather dishes.
