Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F).
  • Add A2 ghee and organic jaggery powder to a mixing bowl. Whisk them together until they reach a fluffy consistency.
  • Stir in the cardamom powder, jowar flour, and finely chopped cashew nuts.
  • Combine all the ingredients with your hands to form a soft dough.
  • Prepare a baking tray by greasing it with a few drops of A2 ghee.
  • Take small portions of the dough and roll them into small cookies with your palms.
  • Press each ball gently to flatten it, and then place the cookies on the baking tray, leaving some space between them.
  • You can also press a whole cashew nut on each cookie for added garnishing and texture.
  • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) for about 20 minutes. If the cookies still feel slightly soft after 20 minutes, bake them for an additional 5 to 7 minutes until they turn golden brown and firm.
  • Once the cookies are baked to perfection, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack for cooling.
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely before serving or storing them in an airtight container.

Power Tips and Variations:

  • Enhance the taste of the cookies with ingredients like cinnamon, vanilla extract, or grated coconut. These will add a burst of flavor to your jowar cookies.
  • Keep a close eye on the cookies while baking, as jowar cookies can turn golden brown quickly. Bake them until they are firm around the edges but are still slightly soft in the center.

Notes

  • Jowar is a good source of dietary fiber, protein, iron, calcium, and phosphorus and is naturally gluten-free, making it an excellent option for people with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease.
  • Rich in antioxidants like phenolic compounds that may have a positive impact on heart health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
