1/2 cup besan
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup finely grated carrot
Directions:
1. Peel and finely grate one full carrot.
2. Cream together the shortening and sugar.
3. Mix in the egg.
4. Add in the flour and baking powder.
5. Fold in finely grated carrot until blended well.
6. Drop by spoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet.
7. Bake at 375 for 10-13 minutes.
