All You Need:
The Recipe:
* You can also use 1/2 cup regular whole flour + 1/2 cup All purpose flour
In the past I have made it without adding any amount of ghee and my shakarparas didn't come out this great, I think adding just 1 tbsp of ghee makes lot of difference to the texture
- Whole wheat whole flour* - 1 cup
- Canola oil - 1/4 cup
- Clarified butter [ghee]- 1tbsp
- Powdered Sugar** - 5 tbsp
- Baking powder- 1/2 tsp
- Cardamom powder - 1/4 tsp
- Crushed fennel seeds - 1/2 tsp
The Recipe:
- Mix all the ingredients and make a soft dough using cold water. Cover the dough and leave it to set for 30 minutes. Pinch the dough into five balls and roll each ball one at a time into 0.5 cm thick chapati like sheet [use flour dust to ease the rolling process]
- Using knife or pizza cutter cut the sheet into the form of diamond and place it over greased baking tray. Repeat the same process with other dough balls.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes at 350 Fahrenheit. These cookies cook very fast. Keep an eye on them else they turn brown. Cool them and store in air-tight container
- This dish makes a great cookie for toddlers [ around 3y]. Its low in fat and refined flour and above all its home baked!
