With health at the forefront for many Indians lately, the biscuit is often overlooked and tea-time bites like cheese crackers bought in bulk. Why not try a homemade version by swapping the usual refined flour for khapli atta. You get dietary fibre and protein from this atta and it will make your munching habit something to look forward to. Just keep in mind that khapli wheat has a weak gluten structure and content, so overdoing the dough, and less patience, are your nemesis. The main ingredient you should focus on, for this cheese crackers recipe, is using quality atta for this recipe. Try Aashirvaad Chakki Khapli Atta, which retains its bran and germ, meaning you get more dietary fibre, along with protein, iron and vitamin B1, which is easy on the stomach. The weaker gluten content also makes this atta easier to digest. Khapli Atta’s weaker gluten structure makes it perfect for baked goods like crackers and biscuits, that do not need puffiness. These crackers can be customised with other spices and herbs, and also swapping the cheddar cheese for another cheese sharing similar properties. These crackers offer a better nutritional balance compared to many packaged snacks. The fibre from khapli wheat supports satiety and digestive health, while cheese adds protein, calcium, and richness. They can be enjoyed as a tea-time snack, packed for lunchboxes, or as an appetiser. Enjoy them with dips like hummus, yoghurt spreads, or chutneys.
