Following the recipe did not work out for me - the thing just disintegrated. But it was still tasty sprinkled on top of yogurt. I was able to save the rest of the mixture by adding 2 eggs and 2 tbsp whole wheat flour - that held the shape pretty well on the pan.

Hi, a quick question. The macros claim 1.8g carbs and 2g fiber per bhakri. So negative net carbs? How''s that possible. 1/4 cup soaked almonds have 6g carbs & 3g fiber giving 3g net carbs. Can you please clarify? Am on a very specific macro diet & need exact numbers. Thanks
