Eggless Whole wheat Orange cookies | Simple orange cookies with step wise pictorial and video method.
Soft and chew cookies made with whole wheat flour, orange rind and orange pulp are so delicious that you can’t stop at one.
And the biggest thing is that all you need very basic and regular ingredients from the pantry.
INGREDIENTS USED
ORANGE: We have used a medium sized orange whose weight comes to 100 grams with peel.
If you manages to get peel then even store bought orange juice will work for you.
And you can go to the extent of omitting peel if manages to have orange essence/extract.
ORANGE PULP : When we eat an orange, we eat it all so why to extract only the juice out of it, this was the thought behind using the whole orange in the recipe.
You may go for only juice.
WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR : Though this is all purpose flour which is commonly used in baking cakes and cookies but we confine to whole wheat flour because of having faith in healthy baking.
You can feel free to use maida, if you like.
SUGAR : We have used bura sugar which is healthy and comes in a powdered form.
You can use refined sugar (after powdering), jaggery powder, cane sugar or any sugar or your choice.
Note that if you choose Jaggery powder or cane sugar, that will have an impact on the colour of your cookies.
BUTTER : We have used the unsalted butter in the recipe. This works as a fat content in the recipe.
BAKING POWDER/SODA : They are the leavening agents which make the cookies soft yet crunchy.
SALT : A pinch of salt for enhancing the taste.
