While it’s now an iconic Indian cookie, its story starts in Persia, where these shortbread-like cookies made with ghee and flour were common. These treats traveled along trade routes and mingled with Mughal culinary influences in India, evolving into the crumbly, fragrant biscuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn India, they became more popular during the British colonial period, when European-style shortbreads inspired local bakers to adapt them with indigenous ingredients like saffron, cardamom, and rose. The result was a cookie that’s buttery, aromatic, and slightly sandy in texture—a perfect marriage of Persian elegance, Mughal indulgence, and Indian home-style warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo every bite of Naan Khatai is a little history lesson: centuries of spice, butter, and love baked into a tiny golden circle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cyrus Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42505355952226,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/3432\/6882\/files\/IMG_5936.jpg?v=1769723811","url":"https:\/\/cyrusfoods.store\/products\/saffron-and-orange-shortbread","provider":"Cyrus Foods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
