Home Made Healthy Whole Wheat Cookies With Almond Meal, Oatmeal


whole grain cookies

Baking with whole grains is easy. Agree?

I have been doing so for over a year, trying out different cookie variations with healthy grains. I am quite happy with the results.

Almonds are my favorite nuts. I prefer to add them to my cookies. However, the addition of almond meal makes a big difference to the taste of cookies. I have added almond powder to my previous batches, wherein I used ground almonds for the recipe, but almond meal enhances the taste to the next level.

Here's why you should include nuts for a healthy heart.

Let's see what all I have included in these healthy whole wheat cookies with almond meal.

Can we use the soaked water for millets? Does millet need to be soaked?

Do millets contain anti-nutrients? Yes, they do. In fact, all whole grains, including oats, contain phytates, which bind to minerals and make their absorption difficult for the body. Soaking is the first step toward reducing anti-nutrients from millets. Soak for at least 6-8 hours to make digestion easier. Discard the soaked water and then proceed to the next step of cooking. Remove foam from top to reduce gassy elements from millets.  How long should millet be soaked before cooking? Soaking the millets overnight is a safe practice. Soaking breaks down the phytic acid in millets or for that matter grains and nuts. Phytic acid hinders the absorption of minerals and nutrients in food, including calcium, iron, and zinc. How? Phytates bind to minerals and nutrients and make their absorption difficult in the gut. Your tummy finds it tough to digest millets in that case.
