I have been trying different varieties of biscuits which are tasty
and also healthy. In this recipe, I have tried Jowar millet and Peanut both
of which are good for health. Both are also very soft as well. Another good
aspect of this cookies is that it is totally gluten free.
The Biscuits came out well and was liked by my family.
