Millet cookies are a wholesome, crunchy snack made with millet flour, butter or ghee, and natural sweeteners. They’re a healthy alternative to regular cookies, perfect with tea or coffee.

Ingredients

1 cup millet flour ½ cup whole wheat flour ½ cup brown sugar ½ cup butter ¼ tsp baking soda 1 tsp vanilla extract 2–3 tbsp milk

Step 1

In a bowl, cream butter, brown sugar until fluffy, and add vanilla extract.

Step 2

Sift the millet flour, wheat flour, and baking soda together, then combine with the creamed mixture.

Step 3

Add a little milk if needed, then shape the dough into small balls, flatten them slightly, and arrange on a greased baking tray.

Step 4

Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C for 12–15 minutes or until edges turn golden.

Step 5

Let cookies cool on a wire rack; they crisp up as they cool.
