Atta is an Indian wheat flour
perfect for making flatbreads such as roti, naan, chapati and puri. This is due
to its high gluten and protein content which gives elasticity to the dough,
helping your flatbreads rise and making them fluffy and soft. Pillsbury Multigrain Atta is a mix of seven different grains:
wheat, soy, oats, maize, ragi, chana dal, barley. These seven natural grains
mean extra nutrition, extra protein, extra iron, and extra calcium than
Pillsbury’s regular Atta, but with the same great taste and softness.
