Nankhatai Without Oven In Pan

Nankhatai Without Oven



Nankhatai is one of the very old and traditional biscuit which is made with variety of ingredients. I still remember in olden days when people dint had ovens, they use to get it baked it in bakery. Still many people during Diwali occasion get it done from local bakers. Here I am sharing this soft and crunchy Nankhtai recipe without using oven. This soft delicious biscuit is made with all purpose flour, butter or vanaspati locally known as Dalda by many, Sugar and half of gram flour is surely going to melt in your mouth and you are just going to love it. Addition of cardamom powder gives that aromatic flavour which I just love. This Nankhtai are loved by many during tea time and it’s a best combination which I too love.

I know its bit heavy on side of using flour, sugar and butter too. But one or two of it are surely needed to be tried. Kids will love these softies in their tiffin’s and oldies will love having them during tea time. So do make them and enjoy.
