Woke up from our traditional-post-Eid-brunch-nap & was craving these purani Delhi (old Delhi) NanKhatais (cookies 🤷🏻‍♀️) & some chai. We’re obsessed with @teaindias instant chai latte packs! Check out the link in my bio for the full recipe & walkthrough! Recipe: 3 cups of graham flour/besan 2 cups of all purpose flour 2 cups of sugar 2 cups (can be slightly more or less) of ghee/butter/oil ( i used 2 cups of canola oil) 1 tsp cardamom powder 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional) 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional) Cooking Spray Almond, Cashew, or Pistachio for garnishing (optional) Method: 1. Preheat your oven to 300 Degrees F. 2. Mix all your dry ingredients together, (flour, graham flour, sugar, baking soda, and spices) 3. Whether you’re kneading by hand or a food processor, slowly add your choice of oil/ghee/butter so the dough doesn't end up too soft. No one in my family eats or enjoys ghee so I used canola oil, for this neutral smelling qualities. 4. Once your dough is ready, line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, lightly coated with cooking spray. 5. Roll out and shape the dough into equal sized balls, "pedas" and place on the sheet 6. If you're going for the full effect, use your thumb to make an impression in the center and place a nut (cashew, almond, or pistachio) of your choice. I used silvered almonds and pistachios. 7. Place your cookie sheet in the oven for 30 minutes at 300 degrees or until golden brown. Higher temperatures will burn your cookies. 8. These should be slightly crisp on the outside but crumble upon your first bite. 9. Let these cool for 10 minutes, precisely the amount of time it takes to make chai. 10. Serve & Enjoy! #tea #chaitea #chaimoments #teaindia #ad #collab #eidmubarak #hightea #recipe #nankhatai
