I am eager to share wheat halwa recipe with jaggary which also known as “Wheat Flour Halwa ” or “Whole Wheat Pudding”. It is an Indian traditional dessert referred as “Aatte ka halwa” in Hindi. This is a simple but solid breakfast. It is basically festival dish, but it could be made occasionally or even on day-to-day when you want to have it. There is a famous Halwa-Poori dish, served with spicy poori made with wheat flour along with this.

Now a days there are so many snacks, biscuits, cookies available but during my childhood time, we don’t have too many options for ready-made breakfast. So in my school days, this was one of my favorite breakfast. As we all know mom’s cooking is the best, even not comparable against world’s best chefs. I used to ask my mom to make wheat halwa with jaggery only, once or twice a week. In fact, I learnt how to make Wheat flour halwa using jaggery from her.

In breakfast usually we are eating pancakes, cookies and biscuits. In many case, you may realize that; all of them contain Refined wheat flour (maida). Whole wheat flour this is a great substitute for it. You can include dry fruits of your choice like almonds, cashews or raisins with this pudding to make it more delicious and more nutritious.

Traditionally, this pudding is made with sugar (health’s greatest enemy), yet I have attempted this pudding with Jaggery (Gudd). Jaggery makes it more delicious and healthy too.

Here I have not included any flavors to this pudding, just to get the best kind of the whole wheat flour halwa. You can likewise include some measure of rava or sooji to give good texture to this pudding.

Avoid Mistakes At First Attempt of Making Wheat Halwa Recipe | Atta halwa

• Use the proper amount of all ingredients. you need at least 1.5 cup water against 1 cup wheat flour.
• Type of jaggery may matters. I have used organic jaggary which is dark in colour. It is more sweet than white jaggery.  So I have used little less then 1/2 cup.
• if you use sugar than no need to use water. Just add sugar after roasting the flour into ghee. and mix and stir until sugar get devolve into it.
