Steps

35 mins.

1

Sift the dry ingredients Maida, Besan, Sooji, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cardamom powder. Mix well and keep aside.
2

Blend Ghee, Sugar, Malai and Curd to a smooth and creamy mixture. (I used food processor here to blend)
3

Now pour the creamy mixture to the dry ingredients and Combine everything together to form a non-sticky dough. Note :- If it's dry add 1 or 2 tsp milk and if it's sticky(like mine was) keep it in freezer for just 5-10 mins and then again mix well.
4

Pinch medium sized balls from the dough. Roll them in palm and slightly flatten. Place them in a greased baking tray while keeping some space between them. Make some criss-cross design on the nankhatai with a toothpick and press silvered almonds on top gently.
5

Bake them in a pre-heated oven at 180°C for 18-20 mins till light golden.
6

When cooled, keep Nankhatai in an airtight container.
