Instructions

  1. Add the flour(s) into a bowl. Stir in baking soda and salt.
  2. In a bowl cream the coconut oil, sugar and yogurt until smooth and creamy. You can use a hand mixer or simply whisk by hand. I whisked it by hand.
  3. Add in the vanilla and spices. Mix well.
  4. Add the flour into the wet ingredients and mix well. Add chopped dates and nuts and mix thoroughly.
  5. Combine well into a soft dough.
  6. Cling wrap the dough and chill in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Shape cookies into desired shape.
  8. (you can also alternately roll out the dough and make shapes with cookie cutters) Arrange the cookies on a greased baking tray.
  9. Bake for 19 to 20 minutes (oven times may vary) or till the edges just start to change color. Cool completely and store in an air-tight container.
  10. (don't worry if the cookies are slightly soft after baking, they will harden as they cool down)
  11. Gorgeous lip-smacking delicious Ragi and Whole Wheat Shortbread Cookies with Pumpkin Spice ready to be devoured!

Nice will definitely try. Can I use normal ragi flour instead of sprouted ragi flour?
