Gluten Free Masala Biscuits
If you are a fan of sweet and salty biscuits then this is the perfect recipe for you!
These biscuits taste like the masala biscuits one used to find in the bakeries of yore, the yellow biscuits stacked one on top of each other in huge mason jars. For me it takes me back me to the sight of small bakeries in the smaller towns of India, like a trip down memory lane.
This recipe is simple, needs only 3 ingredients and can even be baked in a microwave oven with a convection setting.

If you do not have Missi Roti flour, just use any commercially available gluten free flour and add a pinch of turmeric and spices to make the flour.
If you do not want any sugar you can skip it and then your biscuits will be just savoury biscuits.
