The goodness of Flaxseed | Bajra & Jowar - Millets | Walnuts gets amplified when bound in this delicious globe of goodness!
Flaxseed also known as Alsi is rich in anti oxidants | fiber | lignans | Omega 3 essential fatty acids. Both Bajra and Jowar are gluten free and hold a host of health benefits. Walnuts are rich in heart healthy fats and high in antioxidants.Whatever be the benefits, that is a bonus as this tastes so delicious it takes herculean efforts to control and limit at one!
When I get irritated with the state of affairs around me, I normally work that off by preparing some sweet! This is a sure shot way for me to regain my better senses and the resulting outcome is sweet! Sweet right?? During the process of making the sweet, I get so involved in the process that it is blissful and these emotions of a happy mind do get on to add to the flavour.. Few weeks back, since I needed to get back to my happy state, I conjured up a version of this using just Bajra flour. The result was amazing, but since I had made just few of the same, did not blog it. Appa Amma and two of my colleagues loved it!
This time Amma suggested we use a mix of Jowar and Bajra. The result is super delicious. These can be made very easily and have a shelf life of more than a month... provided they last till then!
