Preheat the oven at 450 degree F. Divide the dough and make equal balls out of it. Bake it in an oven for 20 - 25 minutes turning occasionally.
Once fully baked, break a baati and check if thoroughly cooked. Allow it to cool down. Roughly break the baatis and toss them in a food processor or mixer to grind them into crumbs. Another way to break them is by hand. Using your fingers make crumbs out of baati.
Assemble: rest of the ingredients and let's begin preparing Churma recipe.
Heat ghee is a kadai or pan. Add churma crumbs to it and saute for 2-3 minutes on a medium low flame. Stir in chopped dried nuts mix and saute for another minute.
Add cardamom powder, dried coconut and mix well.
Finally add sugar and reduce the heat to low. Stir it well, as the sugar blends in with the churma- take it off the flame and serve.
One may sprinkle more ghee on top before serving. Churma can be enjoyed hot or cold. It can also be stored in an airtight container and is good for 2 weeks.
