Nankhatai/Indian Cookies (Eggless)

I am a deep lover of Nan Khatais and today I tried the recipe of one of my talented blogger friends Ruchi Airen and it turned out to be scrumptious. Ruchi and me got to know each other at Cal and I always love her all the posts because of their simplicity and energy level. Usually I used to bake the Nan Khatais only using plain flour, however Ruchi’s recipe had semolina and chick pea flour as well, which I found to be interesting and thought of giving a try.


Ruchi has explained her recipe very well which makes it easy to follow, which is the reason I have got the best of khasta nan khatais as per its name. My husband and I are very happy with the flavours and we’ve already bookmarked it for repetitions in future, and I am sure it will be ringing bells in my kitchen soon. Sharing this with you all too.

Ingredients
  • All purpose flour/Maida : 2 cups
  • Semolina/sooji : 1 cup
  • Chickpea flour/besan : 1/2 cup
  • Clarified butter/Ghee : 1 1/2 - 2 cups (may vary to knead the dough)
  • Sugar : 1 1/2 cups (powdered)
  • Elaichi powder : to granish
  • Pistachios (coarsely Pounded) to garnish
Method:
  • Mix all purpose flour, Semolina, besan and sugar together.
  • Add ghee to the dry mixture and try to knead the dough. Donot overwork with it otherwise the nankhatais won't be flaky.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
  • Now make small flat balls/ Pedas and place on baking sheet. Using a knife, cut a cross in the middle of each.
  • Press some elaichi powder and pistachios in the middle.
  • Rest the cookie balls in the refrigerator for another 15-20 minutes.
  • Bake at 190°C for 15-20 minutes (depending on the oven)
  • Completely cool on a wire rack and then store in an air tight container.
Enjoy!
