How To Make Eggless Suji Cake Rusk: Eggless Biscottis


My love for eggless cake rusks and cookies is no secret now. You too love baked goodies. Perhaps bakery products aren't the best ingredients for a healthy lifestyle. But you can always make bakery products at home with healthy ingredients and turn them healthier - at least healthier than the market junk. Isn't it?

I love eggless cake rusks and cookies so I make sure I try out different variations. Now same is the case with biscottis or cake rusk.

If you are wondering how to make cake rusk at home, this is the right place to be in.

Previously I tried out the whole wheat cake rusk biscotti that was loved by one and all. Now it's time to try out suji rusk or semolina biscottis loaded with nuts.

  • Once the cake is ready, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool down.
  • We will be slicing it once it is completely cooled.
  • Cut it into slices and bake the cake pieces for 10-12 mins at 170 degrees.
  • Then change sides of the slices and bake them again for 10 mts or little longer at the same temperature.

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
