Category: Bakery products

Ingredients
flour	1.5 stack. (210 g)
baking powder	1.5 tsp. without slide
ground cinnamon	1 tsp
oat flakes	1 cup (85 g)
almond	1 glass (optional)
natural yogurt (3.2%)	250 ml (approx.)
rast. oil	3 tbsp. l.
sugar	100 g in dough and 40 g topping
dried apricots (finely cut)	1 stack. (about 150 g)

Cooking method

The cookies seem to have been specially created for babies ... Some usefulness!
Glass - 250 ml
1. Cut dried apricots into very small pieces.
* If dried apricots are too dry, they must first be soaked in warm boiled water for 15-20 minutes, then discarded in a colander and allowed to drain all the water.
2. Sift the flour, baking powder and cinnamon into a large bowl. Add oatmeal, sugar, dried apricots and nuts; mix.
* Sliced almonds are available in the Oriental sweets departments. If you can't find it, just chop the nuts with a knife. (I didn't put nuts)
3. Beat the yogurt with vegetable oil until smooth.
* Instead of natural yogurt, you can use apricot yogurt - it will brighten the taste of the cookies.
Pour the mixture into the flour and knead to a firm dough.
4. Divide the dough into 20 equal parts and roll small balls out of them with wet hands.
5. Preheat the oven to 190 ° C. Grease a baking sheet with refined vegetable oil. Put the balls on a baking sheet, use a fork to make flat cakes of the same size.
6. Sprinkle the cookies with sugar (I used brown).
* It is better to use brown cane sugar rather than refined white. It is healthy and less sweet.
Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Without shifting from the baking sheet, let the liver cool.
BTW
Unrefined brown sugar differs from white not only in color (which is given to it by the molasses contained in a large amount), but also in the presence of such beneficial minerals as potassium, iron, calcium and copper. It is believed that "right" coffee and "right" tea are impossible without it - only brown sugar can emphasize the taste of the drink. And for sweet pastries, it is just perfect.
The biscuits taste sweet and sour. Delicious, aromatic, healthy!
I sprinkled more orange coconut on top for garnish. The magazine photo featured almond petals as decoration. Were stuck in like bows, 2 pieces each. for cookies.

There was a program about sugar, unfortunately. there is a lot of far-fetched about brown sugar, not always what is written on the label and brown is useful

It is also true that not all programs can be trusted ... I prefer to act intuitively. I put white sugar in the dough and turned the powder brown

Forgive me for being late: I milked the sheep, put the children to bed, cooked supper. The cookies are still alive (not eaten, I mean).
Very tasty, stopped with difficulty. I did everything almost strictly according to the recipe: I put the nuts. Here is the result
Cookies with dried apricots and yogurt

Thanks for such a "healthy recipe". I think all those with a sweet tooth will join me.

And if you don't put the nuts, you need to add flour? .. Still, nuts are also a "filler" ... without them the dough consistency does not become thinner? ...

Gasha

The dough will be tough anyway. But yogurt can be different, in the case of very liquid, maybe a couple of tablespoons of flour will have to be added

This is how the dough should be

baked without dried apricots and almonds (children do not like any additives in the bread, except raisins, but there was none), the rest is according to the recipe, only half of the flour is whole grain.
I liked it very much - the taste of real oatmeal cookies. I used to bake oatmeal cookies, but this taste did not work!

Omela

Ganya, I turn to oatmeal !!! Instead of baking powder - 1 hour. l. soda, instead of dried apricots - raisins, yogurt with additives (sweet) - 250g. The dough was not as steep as in the photo. When baked, they increased in size very much !!!
