Bajra Cashew Mushroom Cookies
Bajra's nutty bite meets roasted cashew and mushroom protein in every bite.
Best as a mid-afternoon snack — the dense, nutty bite is more filling than our lighter cookies.
About this product
Bajra has a noticeably nuttier, denser bite than ragi or jowar, and roasting cashew pieces into the dough plays that up rather than smoothing it over — this is the least delicate cookie in our range, and that's by design. Mushroom powder adds to the protein side of the equation here alongside the cashew, so if you're comparing cookies specifically for protein content, this and the mixed-nut nutribar are the two products in our range built with that in mind.
The texture holds together well for something built on a gluten-free base — bajra flour has enough natural structure that these don't crumble the way some millet cookies can, and the cashew pieces add a bit of crunch against the otherwise dense crumb. It's a cookie that suits an afternoon slump better than a light evening snack; the density means it fills you up rather than disappearing in two bites.
Bajra is one of the more drought-resilient Indian millets and has been a staple grain in western and northern India for generations, well before "millet" became a marketing term — we mention that because the flour choice here isn't a trend-chasing swap, it's a grain with a long practical history in Indian baking that happens to also be naturally gluten-free and fibre-forward.
