Ingredients

1/2 cup - cornmeal (makki atta)

1/2 cup-almond meal/powder
2 tbsp- ghee/clarified butter

Cornmeal Cookies Procedure
cookies with cornmeal

  1. Sieve wheat flour, cornmeal.
  2. Add almond powder. Mix.
  3. Whisk solid ghee and oil with jaggery until light and fluffy. Add curd and whisk until smooth (soft peaks).
  4. Add fennel seeds to the flours.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones.
  6. Do not knead.
  7. We need a soft dough, nor too hard.
  8. Make 2 or 3 logs of the dough and cover each log with aluminum foil and keep in the refrigerator.
  9. I refrigerated the dough logs for the whole night.
  10. Next morning, cut the log into different desired shapes and sizes.
  11. Preheat airfryer for 6 minutes at 160 degrees.
  12. Grease a baking tray and set the cookies on the tray, placing each cookie at a distance from each other. This allows even baking.
  13. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 160 degrees. 
  14. I baked another set of cornmeal cookies on gas stove on a skillet. Place an iron tawa on the burner. Grease a thick steel plate or nonstick utensil. Place cookies evenly on the utensil/plate.
  15. Set the gas to a low flame.
  16. Cover the cookies with a big utensil.
  17. Bake for 8-10 minutes. check and change sides. Keep an eye on the cookies, as they bake really fast on gas. Keeping for too long would brown them. The second side bakes quickly - may take 5 minutes. 
  18. Let the cookies cool on a cooling rack.
  19. ENJOY the healthy cornmeal cookies with a cup of hot tea. 
  20. Store in an airtight container.
