I do not bring cashews home, as munching on these delicious dry fruits may raise cholesterol levels in your body. If you are already suffering from cholesterol management issues, then I would suggest that you replace cashew with healthier nuts, for example, almonds and pistachios. You may even add toasted sesame seeds.

1 cup- powdered oats (grind rolled/regular oats to powder)
1/2 cup- whole wheat flour
1/2 cup- jaggery powder (more or less depending on your taste)
1/4 cup- ghee/clarified butter (make ghee in 5 mins..check the recipe here)

How to make oatmeal delicious: Whole Wheat Cashew Cookies Eggless

1. Whisk solid ghee, oil, and jaggery powder until the mix looks light and fluffy.
2. Add cardamom powder or fennel seeds. I didn't add this time.
3. Sieve both flours 5-8 times. This is important to aerate the flours.
4. Add powdered nuts and roasted flax seeds
5. Sieve again.
6. Now add dry ingredients to the wet mix.
7. Mix with hands. Do not knead. Kneading will result in gluten formation, which will make cookies chewy. But we want crunchy biscuits. So just mix everything with hands, without kneading.
8. Add milk - 1tbsp at a time until the dough comes together as a ball.
9. We need a soft dough. Now drop in chopped cashew nuts. Roll into a log or ball.
10. Wrap the dough ball in an aluminum foil/parchment paper.
11. Refrigerate for 30 mts.
12. Take out the dough and preheat oven/microwave convection for 10 mts at 160 degrees.
13. I made these eggless cookies in an airfryer.Preheat for 5 mins.
14. The dough may be difficult to roll out . Keep it for 10 mts on the counter.
15. Roll out like a thick chapati using a rolling pin. Make desired shapes. Do not forget to make insertions using a fork. This will allow deeper and even heating/baking/airfrying.
16. Bake/or airfry the cashew cookies at 160 degrees for 20-25 mts.
17. Allow the eggless cookies to cool down completely before munching on these bakes beauties.
18. The yummy cashew cookies are ready to be dunked in a hot cup of tea or glass of milk.
19. Of course, you may have these eggless bakes just like that.
