Alaya F and Pooja Bedi share healthy blueberry pancake recipe.
In the middle of a bright, chatter-filled kitchen, actor Alaya F joined her mother, Pooja Bedi, to cook up a breakfast that blended wellness with nostalgia. The duo, known for their infectious energy and easy camaraderie, brought warmth and humour to the set as they prepared a simple, high-protein take on a classic favourite – blueberry pancakes with a homemade compote.
“Breakfast should make you happy, not heavy,” quipped Alaya F, as she tied her apron. And with that, the morning turned into a cheerful mix of whisking, teasing, and light-hearted family banter that mirrored the dish itself – comforting yet energising. Appearing on Farah Khan’s vlog, the mother-daughter duo shared their blueberry pancake recipe.
The star of their breakfast table wasn’t just the pancakes but the intention behind them – creating something that’s both nourishing and indulgent. Alaya, a self-proclaimed fitness enthusiast, swapped out refined ingredients for wholesome alternatives: oats flour instead of maida, ripe banana instead of sugar, and a scoop of protein powder for that extra power punch.
The recipe was as straightforward as it was clever:
- ½ cup oats flour (or blitzed rolled oats)
- 1 scoop protein powder
- 2 eggs
- 1 mashed banana
- A dash each of baking powder, soda, cinnamon, and vanilla essence
- A splash of milk to bring it all together
As the batter came together, the kitchen filled with the comforting scent of vanilla and banana – proof that healthy food doesn’t need to sacrifice flavour. “Actually, humein bahut protein intake milega ismein se,” Alaya explained, smiling at her mum, who nodded approvingly.
No pancake stack is complete without a topping, and the mother-daughter duo made sure to add their signature flair. Pooja stirred together a quick blueberry compote – just berries, lemon juice, and a drizzle of honey – to crown their golden pancakes. The result? A plate that looked as joyful as the duo behind it.
As they plated up, Farah and Dilip joined in on the tasting, with Farah declaring, “Mera favourite!” after a spoonful.
What made this moment special wasn’t just the protein-packed recipe. It was the reminder that food, when shared with loved ones, can be both medicine and memory.
