How To Make Whole Grain Cookies With Ragi, Oatmeal, Moong Dal

You are looking for a ragi cookie recipe, isn't it? Perhaps you love healthy bakes. Why not, what you get outside is simply junk, loaded with unhealthy ingredients - say maida/white flour, dalda, and refined sugar. If this isn't enough, the market junk is rich in trans fats. You can only expect to have high triglycerides and bad cholesterol if you continue to munch on market cookies.

You can't think of healthy stuff outside. This is my experience. One packet of ready-to-eat poha has made me suffer for the past 2 years that I have stopped buying every ready-made food item.


homemade ragi cookie recipe



This has inspired me to make everything at home. My love for cookies has only added fuel to the fire to cook healthy food.

Let's come back to the ragi cookie recipe.
I have included roasted moong dal for flavor. You may skip it altogether.
But it's a great idea to include lentils in your bakes to make your baking marvels wholesome - with fiber, proteins, and carbs.

Why Ragi/finger millet?

It is rich in
proteins,
fiber,
minerals
antioxidants
Not only this, ragi lowers blood sugar levels, with a low glycemic index. It reduces concentrations of triglycerides and cholesterol.

So now you know the reason why I have added ragi and whole grains for this cookie recipe?

After all, you need a balanced meal - so why not try making whole grain cookies?

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. why you should not eat millets unsoaked #shortsfeed #shortsvideo #shorts  Is it necessary to soak millets?
