  • What if I say this choco chip oatmeal cookie recipe uses a blend of oatmeal and whole wheat flour?
  • What if I say this healthy homemade whole wheat flour cookie recipe is enriched with olive oil?
  • What if I say this uses no choco chips but choco flakes?


Well, substitute chocos with choco chips to delight the kid in you. This batch of healthy cookies with whole wheat flour is a breeze to process. Just a few ingredients and you are done!

I made just a few pieces of chocolate chip cookies, but when I tasted them I fretted having made a few.

This is my take on choco chip cookies - a kid-friendly recipe!

The crunch that chocos lend to this oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe takes it to another level.
With fiber loaded oatmeal and nutrient-rich whole wheat flour, the oatmeal cookie without butter recipe demands attention. Involve kids in the recipe, and they would never reject this batch!

I have adapted this recipe from my MCvities digestive recipe and tried to make the kid's favorite chocolate chip cookies healthier.


Chocolate chip oatmeal cookie ingredients

1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup powdered oats
1/4 cup- dry milk powder
2 tbsp - clarified butter (desi ghee)

Is Fermented Rice Healthy? How Do You Ferment Rice [Odisha's Pakhala Bhaat Recipe]

 What is the meaning Pakhala bhaat? Is Pakhala good for health? Is fermented rice healthy?  Or in other words, does curd rice have b12? These are some of the questions that have been asked every now and then. So in this video from the Odia cuisine, I present to you Odisha special Pakhala - the ancient Odia tradition of fermenting rice. Now coming back to making Pakhala at home. I dedicate this video to my mother-in-law, who has taught me some simple ways to ferment rice with and without curd.  The idea is to cook rice in water, primarily you will need to boil rice in a lot of water. Drain off excess water and let the rice come to room temperature. Then mix it with curd, salt, and water and store in an earthen clay pot. Since we want to ferment rice, the idea is to leave it overnight at room temperature - ideally in a cool location, which is not too hot.  By next morning, the rice should have fermented - teeming with colonies of healthy bacteria. If you use brown rice...

Soaking turns pumpkin seeds water green | Is it SAFE?

 Pumpkin seeds cause water to develop a green tint mainly because they contain chlorophyll, the natural pigment that gives plants their green color. This phenomenon occurs through several interconnected processes that involve the seed's cellular structure and pigment composition. Raw pumpkin seeds, particularly the hulled green varieties commonly known as pepitas, contain significant amounts of chlorophyll. This is the same compound responsible for photosynthesis in plants and creates the distinctive green appearance in leaves, stems, and other plant tissues. The chlorophyll concentration in pumpkin seeds is naturally high since these seeds develop within the green interior of the pumpkin. When pumpkin seeds are soaked in water, their cellular walls begin to soften and break down gradually. This process allows water molecules to penetrate the seed structure and extract various compounds, including pigments. Although chlorophyll isn't completely water-soluble in its pure chemica...
