Step by Step pictures to make Cumin Biscuits at home

Before baking at 180 C

Ingredients Needed

Wheat flour – 1 cup
Demerara sugar – 1/2 cup
Baking powder – 1/2 tsp
Butter – 4 tbsp
Salt a pinch
Milk 2-4Tbsp ( I didn’t use this at all)
Jeera / cumin – 1 tsp

How to make Jeera Biscuits

In a bowl, shift the flour with baking powder. Then mix in the sugar. Mix well.

Melt the butter in microwave for 30 secs.

Then slowly add the butter to the flour and knead to a dough. Depending on how it forms a ball, add milk. Mine was fine without adding any milk. Pinch out small balls, press into small discs. Press the jeera on the top.

Pre heat the oven at 170 degree C. Then bake at 170 degree C for 15 mins.

Allow it to cool.
Notes: As far as I know brown sugar and Demerara is the same. The granules didn’t get melted, so it gave a good munch when you bite into the biscuits. The other recipes I checked were savory with the jeera added to the dough. So will surely do that next time.

I was so glad that the Peddu and Konda loved eating these and that I have one more added snack for their school snack box.
