Note:

Besan (Chickpea flour) is high in protein, zinc, magnesium and other minerals. Besan Sheera is traditionally used to alleviate symptoms of cough & cold, and as an immunity booster. In this recipe, a mix of Besan and Atta is used, for a more wholesome taste. If you prefer a gluten-free version, just substitute the Atta with equal quantity of Besan. 

Almonds are rich in bio-available Zinc. It can be avoided, in case of nut allergy. Adjust sweetness as per taste. 

 

For a vegan version, substitute whole milk with plant-based milk and Organic Virgin Coconut Oil / Vegan Butter in place of ghee. 

 

The combination of turmeric powder, ghee and black pepper along with A2 milk provides the immunity enhancing capability of golden milk. Spices offer warmth to the body along with their immunity boosting powers. This is not a replacement to any medication, only a traditional recipe offering a little boost to our immune system.
