Davangere benne dose (Kannada: ದಾವಣಗೆರೆ ಬೆಣ್ಣೆ ದೋಸೆ, dāvaṇagere beṇṇe dōse) or butter dosa is a type of dosa which traces its origin to the city of Davanagere in Karnataka, India. The term "benne dose" in Kannada means simply "butter dosa." It is prepared by the addition of a generous amount of butter while preparing the normal dosa, and accompanied by coconut chutney. Its batter is very different comprising a mixture of rice, dal, puffed rice, etc., and is prepared on a wood-fired pan. It is similar to masala dosa or set dosa but smaller in size, made out of rice batter and much more butter. It is served with liberal helpings of butter sprinkled on it.[1][2][3][4]
