Healthier Buckwheat Cookies

The refined sugar can be substituted with jaggery which can be melted along with the butter in the microwave and added to the batter making these Buckwheat Cookies Healthy.

As jaggery tends to turn liquid the amount of flour will need to be increased so add another ¼ cup of buckwheat flour to it.

If making these cookies for kids I suggest you skip the chocolate and the nuts.Also use jaggery/palm sugar instead of refined sugar.Substitute the brown and white refined sugar for ¼ cup Jaggery.It should be melted along with the butter.Add ¼ cup more flour cause addition of the jaggery will make the batter a little wet.
