ALMOND COOKIES (NOT ONLY) FOR VALENTINE'S DAY

Delicious and crispy, perfect for coffee, tea and cocoa, for work and for a trip, actually for any occasion, but especially on Valentine's Day ;) And the most important thing, the cookies are made with sugar. Oh yes! Sugar is coming back into favour, because after two years experience I must admit that there is no better sweetener in the universe than sugar. And the white wheat flour shouldn't be demonised. Surely, everything within reason and in moderation. I still use the whole grain products, and agave and date syrup are still my favourite sweeteners, while xylitol and other types of sweeteners such as erythritol are not any more.

OAT FLAKE COOKIES WITH NUTS AND RAISINS

If you want to sweeten your life a little bit, but you are on a diet or can't eat sweets with refined sugar, I recommend healthy oat flake cookies with nuts and raisins, which I sweetened with sugar made from flowers and herbs. This sugar is my great discovery of the year 2021. It has only 0,1 calories per serving and a low glycemic index, but it still tastes very pleasant and can match the taste and the sweetness of ordinary refined sugar. I am very happy about this discovery and I can't wait to try this sweetener in all kinds of desserts. Give it a try and let me know if you share my enthusiasm.

These are the ingredients of the floral-herbal sugar: juice concentrate of arenga flowers, citron extract, cornflower petals, lotus petals, rose petals, sweet chili, safflower petals, hibiscus petals, natural vanilla aroma (contains vanilla fruit), root of a beetroot, cardamom seeds, orange peel, sunflower petals.
