Made with a blend of whole wheat flour and oats flour, this recipe is packed with fiber and heart-healthy benefits while keeping the fat content to a minimum. A hint of cumin seeds lends aromatic warmth, and a light brushing of olive oil adds just the right touch of flavor without compromising its health-conscious appeal. Perfectly soft yet slightly crisp, these bhakris are quick to prepare in under 30 minutes and pair beautifully with your favorite curries or chutneys. Ideal for those seeking a guilt-free, high-fiber option in their daily diet, this low-fat bhakri brings together simplicity and nourishment in every bite.
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, oats flour, salt, and cumin seeds.
Gradually add warm water to the flour mixture, mixing with your hand or a spoon until it forms a rough dough.
Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape them into balls.
Flatten each dough ball slightly and roll it out into a circle about 6 inches in diameter using a rolling pin.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
Place one rolled bhakri on the hot skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface.
Flip the bhakri and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Lightly brush or spray a few drops of olive oil on each side and continue to cook for an additional 30 seconds per side for a crispy texture.
Remove from the skillet and repeat with remaining dough balls.
Serve warm with your choice of curry or chutney.
