Saffron Cookies



Learn how to make Saffron Cookies, a quick eggless cake recipe by Anushruti only on Rajshri Food!

Saffron cookies is a divine recipe which indulges you in the heavenly taste of Saffron along with the blend of pistachios and mezzaluna. It's one such cookie recipe which adds the exotic spices, the crunchiness and the melt in the mouth texture. A perfect recipe which you can make during festive season or any special occassions or even if you feel like munching something sweet. So watch the video and learn how to make Eggless Saffron Cookies.

Ingredients: (Makes 40 cookies)

1/4 tsp saffron
2 tsp milk, warmed to dissolve the saffron
6 cardamom pods
1/4 nutmeg
20 pistachios, crushed or coarsely chopped
200 gm (1 1/2 cups) flour
100 gm (1/2 cup + 2tbsp) castor sugar
100 gm (1/2 cup) ghee
A few drops of milk to bind the dough if required

Method:
- Place the saffron with the warm milk in a mortar pestle.
- In a mortar and pestle or coffee mill, grind the cardamom seeds and nutmeg to a fine powder and keep aside.
- Chop the pistachios into small pieces. A mezzaluna is great for this purpose!
- Crush the saffron into a smooth paste using the mortar and pestle.
- In a large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer, mix the ghee and the sugar together. Put in the saffron mixture, cardamom and nutmeg powder and blend well.
- Put in the flour and form into a dough. If the flour refuses to co operate, add a few more drops of milk, just enough for the dough to come together and form into a dough.
- Preheat your oven to 350 F
- Divide the dough into two halves and on a clean surface roll half of the dough into 6” circle. Sprinkle half of the pistachios over it and lightly roll with a rolling pin.
- Using a cookie cutter of your choice cut into cookies. Assemble the remaining dough, roll again and cut. Repeat until you have no dough remaining.
- Repeat the above step for the remaining half of the dough.
- Place the cookies on a tray lined with butter paper and bake for 15 minutes.
- Cool completely and store in an air tight container.
Note : Try replacing the plain flour with whole wheat flour if you are making it for toddlers or if you would like to do so! The only difference would be that the saffron flavour would not be as distinct!

Triple Apple & Almond Muffins



These muffins are only sweetened with apples and dates. We make our own apple sauce and even though it is unsweetened, it tastes very sweet and works perfect in this recipe. Since these muffins are not overly decadent, we enjoy them both as weekend breakfast and weekday dessert. If you know that you like your muffins more on the sweeter side, you can reduce the apple sauce and replace the reduced amount with maple syrup.

Dry ingredients
1 cup / 100 g almond flour
1 cup / 100 g rolled oats (use cert. gluten free if intolerant)
2/3 cup / 75 g buckwheat flour
2 tbsp arrowroot (or potato starch)
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cardamom
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp sea salt

Wet ingredients
160 ml / 2/3 cup plain unsweetened yogurt or plant yogurt
80 ml / 1/3 cup coconut oil, butter or olive oil
10 fresh soft dates, pitted and mashed
3 large eggs (or 3 tbsp chia seeds mixed with 9 tbsp water)
1/2 cup / 120 ml apple sauce, unsweetened (see below for instructions hot to make your own)

3 apples

Preheat the oven to 400°F / 200°C. Grease a muffin pan with oil or butter or line it with muffin tins. Add all the dry ingredients to a food processor or blender and process on high speed so the oats turn into coarse flour and all ingredients are mixed. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add eggs, yogurt, coconut oil, dates and 1/3 cup / 80 ml of the apple sauce (save the rest for later) to the food processor or blender and mix until smooth, and then transfer to the mixing bowl with the dry ingredients. Grate two of the apples and add them to the batter. Divide the batter into the muffin tins filling them only half way up. Drop a heaping teaspoon of apple sauce in the middle of each muffin and then cover with the remaining batter. Slice the remaining apple thinly, brush the slices with oil and place one or a few slices on top of each muffin. Dust with cinnamon. Bake for about 18-20 minutes. Let cool for a bit before taking them out of their tins and they will release easier. Enjoy!


Apple Sauce
Homemade apple sauce is dead simple and if you choose a sweet variety of apples, no other sweetener is needed.

1 lb / ½ kg organic apples
¼ cup / 60 ml water
1 tsp lemon juice

Core the apples, cut them in ½ inch / 1 cm dices and add to a large sauce pan on medium heat together with the water. Bring to a boil and then turn down the heat slightly. Let simmer for 20-25 minutes. Use a hand blender to mix it smoothly. Add lemon juice and stir around to prevent the color from going brown. Store in air-tight glass jars the fridge for about a week or in plastic containers in the freezer for-like-ever.

Curried Pumpkin Coconut Bisque by Chef Michi




1 tsp. extra virgin olive oil or vegetable oil
1 medium onion, finely minced or pulsed in a processor
2 tbsp. curry powder
2 tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. ground cardamom
½ tsp. ground turmeric
1 tsp. granulated garlic
1 tsp. garlic salt
14 oz. unsweetened coconut milk
28 oz. 100% pure pumpkin
14 oz. crushed tomatoes
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
2 tbsp. chives, fresh chopped or dried, optional
½ cup fat free Greek yogurt, optional


Place a large soup pot on the stove over medium high heat; add the oil. Then add the onion and sauté for about three minutes. Be careful not to let it get too brown because a burnt flavor will permeate the soup. Add the curry powder, cumin, cardamom, turmeric, granulated garlic and garlic salt to the pot. Cook for an additional minute, constantly stirring. This helps release the essential oils in the spices.

Pour in the coconut milk, pumpkin, crushed tomatoes and chicken broth. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 more minutes.
