They are a staple food with superior nutritional qualities compared to other cereals. India is the biggest producer of millets in the world and millets remain a staple crop for numerous households. When properly stored, whole Finger millets will keep for two or more years. Baked products are foods mainly based on cereal flours which are blended with other ingredients. Millet protein lacks gluten, hence it is unsuitable as the sole material for preparation of bakery products.
