Tastes exactly like the peda we used to get in Varanasi as kids. Not overly sweet, and the texture is spot on. Ordered a second box within the week.

About Besan Nankhatai
Besan Nankhatai: Traditional Eggless Gram Flour Cookies
Besan Nankhatai from Sri Annapurna Foods are traditional eggless cookies made with gram flour (besan) and refined wheat flour. They have a short, crumbly bite and the toasty, nutty flavour that besan gives a bake.
Available in 150 gm and 300 gm packs, they suit tea time, snacking and gifting. Open a pack with your evening chai, share it with guests, or add it to a festive hamper.
About Besan Nankhatai
Nankhatai is a classic Indian bake, a short, crumbly biscuit usually enjoyed with tea. The besan version swaps part of the flour for gram flour, which adds a roasted, nutty taste and a sandy, crumbly texture. Ours sit in our eggless bakery range as the traditional Indian option, for people who prefer a familiar, homely cookie with no eggs.

How It’s Made
Our Besan Nankhatai is prepared using premium gram flour, refined flour, pure ghee, and fine sugar, blended into a rich, aromatic dough. Flavoured with fragrant cardamom, each cookie is carefully shaped by hand and baked slowly until perfectly golden. This traditional baking process creates its signature crumbly texture and rich ghee aroma before every batch is freshly packed to preserve its freshness.

Ordered for a family function, arrived well packed and fresh. Everyone asked where I got it from. Will reorder for Diwali.
Good taste, slightly sweeter than I expected but still very good quality. Delivery was quick, within 3 days.
