Eggless Wheat Biscuits Recipe with step by step pictures

The recipe is really simple. You can prepare for these biscuits within few minutes. To make eggless wheat biscuits we need wheat flour, salted butter, sugar, baking powder, milk and vanilla essence. If you are using unsalted butter then you should add a pinch of salt too. The exact quantity of each of these ingredients are shown in recipe box at end of this post.

In a bowl take wheat flour and add butter to it. I have cut the butter in small cubes so that it will be easy to knead. Note: Butter should be cold or at room temperature and not in melted form.

Kneading the butter and flour is very important as butter should get mixed well with the flour. Once it mixes well the flour will look crumbly in texture as you can see in the below picture.

Add the other ingredients like sugar, vanilla essence and baking powder and again mix well all the ingredients. Note: If your sugar crystal are little big then make the powder of  it and add to the flour. Or you can use powdered sugar.

Once all the ingredients mixes well, the dough should look something like below.

Now add milk slowly to the flour and start kneading dough. Do not add all the milk at a time.

In the below picture you can see that nice biscuit dough is form and ready to make biscuits.

Dust the work area with some dry wheat flour  and place the dough on top of the dusted flour so that the dough does not stick to the working surface.

Roll the dough with the help of the rolling pin and roll to the thickness of about 1/2 centimeter thick as shown in the below picture.

Once the dough is rolled evenly its time to cut the biscuit with the help of cookie cutter or bottle cap. Repeat the above step for the remaining biscuit dough.

Once all the biscuit are done place the biscuits on the baking tray with the baking parchment paper lined on the baking tray. So that the cookie does not stick to the baking tray.

Pre heat the oven at 180 degree C for about 10 min. Once the oven is pre heated its tine to place the biscuits in the oven to bake at 180 degree C for about 16 min or till the biscuit starts to change its color form the sides.

Turn off the oven and take out the baking tray. Let the tray sits for 5 minutes before remove all the biscuits. Line up the biscuits on cooling rack. Once cool down, our delicious whole wheat biscuits or cookies are ready to serve. Enjoy these little flavorsome biscuits with a cup of tea or milk. Happy Baking 🙂
