Ajwain biscuit made with wheat flour are a wholesome twist on the classic Indian tea-time snack. With the nutty flavour of whole wheat and the aromatic warmth of ajwain, these biscuits offer both taste and nutrition in every bite. They are perfect for those looking for a healthier alternative to maida-based biscuits.

Wholesome Goodness of Whole Wheat Flour

Using wheat flour adds natural fibre and a richer texture to ajwain biscuits. Whole wheat not only makes the biscuits more filling but also supports better digestion, making them suitable for regular consumption without guilt.

Aromatic Flavour of Ajwain

Ajwain (carom seeds) gives these biscuits their signature flavour. Lightly crushed ajwain releases a pleasant aroma and mild spice that pairs beautifully with the earthy taste of wheat flour. Ajwain is traditionally known for its digestive benefits, adding functional value to this snack.

Crispy Texture with a Rustic Feel

Wheat flour ajwain biscuits have a delightful crunch with a slightly rustic, bakery-style texture. They are crisp on the outside and firm yet crumbly inside, making them ideal for dipping in tea or coffee.

Eggless and Home-Baked

These ajwain biscuits are eggless and made using simple, everyday ingredients. Easy to prepare and bake, they are perfect for home bakers, beginners, and anyone who enjoys healthy homemade snacks.

Ideal for Daily Snacking and Gifting

Whether served during evening tea, packed for travel, or gifted during festivals, wheat flour ajwain biscuits are always appreciated. Their balanced flavour, longer shelf life, and homemade goodness make them suitable for all age groups.
