Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup oats plain
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour/atta
  • 1/2 cup mineral sugar or brown sugar or regular sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter soft & unsalted
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 3 tbsp Milk or as per need

Instructions
 

  • Add oats in blender and blend coarsely.
  • Take the oats coarse powder in a bowl.

  • After the said period, take the dough out, unwrap and place on a greased butter paper.
  • Take one more piece of butter paper and put on the dough.
  • Now start rolling the dough with a rolling pin into a flat disc.
  • Using cookie cutter, mark cuts in the dough. But before cutting, dip the cookie cutter in flour so that cutter shouldn't stick to flour.
  • Take out the extra edges and keep aside.
  • Using the back side of toothpick, mark holes in the cookies as the digestive biscuits look like such only.
  • Likewise make the cookies with the entire dough.
  • Arrange cookies, as much can be adjusted in batch, on a baking tray lined with greased butter paper.
  • Bake in a pre-heated oven @180℃ for 15-17 minutes or until they are slightly golden.
  • Bring the tray out and put of cooling rack.
  • Thereafter bake next batch of cookies.
  • Your digestive biscuits are ready.
  • Enjoy.

Notes

  1. Colour of cookies depend on kind of sugar/sweetener you use. Cookies with regular white sugar will be light whereas made with brown sugar or jaggery will be deep golden.
  2. Quantity of sugar used makes these cookies moderate sweet because digestive biscuits too are never too much sweet. However you can adjust the sweetness as per your liking.
  3. Putting dough in refrigerator in very important so don't skip it at all.
