Processing Steps

1. Preparation of Ingredients

• Selection & Cleaning:
  • Sprouted foxtail millet and emmer wheat grains are cleaned to remove dust and foreign particles.
• Sprouting & Drying:
  • The grains are soaked, sprouted, and dried at low temperatures (<50°C) to retain nutrients.
• Milling:
  • The dried grains are finely ground into sprouted foxtail millet and emmer wheat flours.

2. Dough Preparation

  • In a mixing bowl, combine sprouted foxtail millet flour, sprouted emmer wheat flour, coconut powder, and rock salt.
• Fat Incorporation:

• Sweetener Addition:

• Dough Formation:
  • Slowly add water (or plant-based milk) to bring the mixture together into a firm dough.

3. Shaping & Molding

• The dough is rolled out to 5–8 mm thickness and cut into desired shapes using cookie cutters.
• A fork can be used to create perforations for even baking.

4. Baking Process
