Even an inexperienced housewife will be able to cook low-calorie cookies from bran with her own hands - the recipe is so simple.
We will need:
- 100g of extruded bran (of any kind, wheat taken for the recipe);
- 3 egg whites (we do not add yolks due to a decrease in the calorie content of cookies, but if you add them, it will turn out no less tasty, only about two hundred extra calories will be added to the recipe);
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil (can be replaced with vegetable);
- 1/3 teaspoon of salt;
- sugar to taste (it should be borne in mind that each teaspoon of sugar adds an extra 30 calories to the recipe).
Grind bran in a coffee grinder or blender until flour.
Beat the whites until a thick foam forms.
Add olive oil, salt and sugar.
Add bran flour.
Leave the resulting dough for half an hour to swell.
Then mold cookies of any shape convenient for you (in the recipe it’s convenient to bake cookies in the form of sausages).
Bake in the oven at 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes until tender.
The result is a delicious low-calorie bran cookie without any chemistry and palm oil.
In our recipe, excluding sugar (and, of course, yolks) for all cookies, about 560 calories are obtained, and how many pieces of cookies you make from this amount of dough depends on your imagination. In any case, the output is a low-calorie product containing only healthy vitamins and elements.
