Baked Palak Ki Mathri Recipe is a healthy take on Mathri - one of the favorite Indian tea-time snacks. It’s a crumbly, salty and savory Indian fritter or biscuit that has a flaky texture and is perfect served alongside a hot cup of tea. Typically, mathris are deep fried and made with all-purpose flour, as a result many health conscious people avoid it. But this recipe uses the traditional savoury snacks but with healthy twist, where they are fortified with spinach leaves and baked, rather than deep fried. What’s more - whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour gives it grain and texture too, so you can enjoy this tea-time treat, minus the guilt.

Serve the Baked Palak Ki Mathri along with Masala Chai and some other treats like

  1. Sabudana Vada
  2. Nariyal Ki Kachori
  3. Green Spinach & Oats Cutlet

    2 cups Whole Wheat Flour

    4 tablespoons Ghee
    1 teaspoon Ajwain (Carom seeds)

    100 grams Spinach Leaves (Palak), chopped
