Whole wheat, Eggless biscuits

Biscuits are so easily available, why make them at home?

Because of their ingredients. Pick up almost any brand of biscuits and read the list of ingredients. They are full of refined flour, palm oil (or its derivative palm olein), and sugar. If not sugar, it will be an artificial sweetener -

that's even worse.

But the kids love them! And me too! It's impossible to imagine tea without biscuits. So, what to do? Make them at home :)

These whole wheat, eggless biscuits use staple pantry ingredients, and are super easy to make. Even my 5 year old loves to help me when I make them.

Ingredients:

• 4 tbsp ghee
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar/jaggery powder/unrefined sugar
• 1 cup whole wheat flour (atta)
• 1/3 tsp baking powder
• A pinch of salt
• 1/4 tsp cardamom powder (optional)
• 4-5 tbsp milk

Tips:

• If you have a small oven, lightly cover the baking tray with aluminium foil to prevent the tops from burning.
• If the bottom part seems to have cooked faster, turn the biscuits to prevent the bottom part from burning.
• If you have the patience, you may roll the dough into a sheet and cut shapes with a cookie cutter. I generally skip the beautifying part.
