Eggless Jowar Cookies: How To Make Oatmeal Delicious


Baking with whole grains gives me a great deal of satisfaction. The happiness that I am choosing healthy ingredients has no match.

My cookie experimentation spree continues, as I try to include healthy ingredients in my bakes. Yes, baking isn't the best option, but I can't have my tea without cookies, so here's my take on jowar-oats cookies.

The result I have got with this variation of almond cookies is just awesome.

This jowar cookie recipe with oatmeal can come in handy.


Jowar Cookie Ingredients
1/2 cup- jowar flour (sorghum)
1/2 cup-wheat flour
1 cup- oatmeal (grind oats to powder)
1 cup- almond meal (check the procedure to make almond meal here)
3 tbsp- desi ghee (clarified butter)/butter
3 tbsp- oil
2-3 tbsp- milk (to bind the dough)
2 tbsp- sugar powder (I take less sugar, you may add more)
1 tsp- fennel seeds (saunf) I like the aroma of saunf in cookies/you may add cardamom or cinnamon or any other spice
1 tsp- baking powder

Jowar Cookies Procedure
eggless simple cookie recipe: how to make oatmeal delicious


  1. Keep almond meal aside. I add saunf to almond meal. You may mix saunf with the flours.
  2. Sieve wheat flour, jowar flour, oatmeal, and baking powder. Oatmeal may get struck on the sieve. You may add it again to the flour after sieving it 2-3 times. This will ensure baking powder mixes well with the flour.
  3. Take a bowl. Add ghee, oil, and sugar. Whisk properly to get a fluffy mixture.
  4. Add almond meal to the flours.
  5. Mix wet and dry ingredients. The dough may appear crumbly, just like bread crumbs. Worry not. This is exactly what we are aiming for.
  6. Now add milk 1 tbsp each time. Add more if the dough still feels dry. Remember, we do not want a sticky dough. Milk is added just to gather the ingredients. DO NOT KNEAD.
  7. Cut the dough into separate logs and cover in aluminum foil.butter paper or parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 mts.
  8. After 30 minutes. preheat the oven (microwave convection) at 180 degrees for 8 minutes.
  9. This is the time we will use to give cookie shapes.
  10. Take out the logs from the fridge and cut into desired shapes.
  11. Grease the baking tray and palce cookies evenly, ensuring there is good distance between each cookie.
  12. Bake at 180 degrees for 20 minutes. 
  13. Enjoy delicious and healthy cookies with a hot cup of tea.
  14. Similar to jowar oats cookies, I have tried my hands at different flours. Take a look here.

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. So soaking millets and draining off that soaked water makes it easier on your tummy.  Are millets safe for thyroid? Does
