For making cookies, use flakes or oatmeal. You can cook it yourself. To do this, oatmeal is fried in a dry frying pan, cooled and ground in a blender to a state of flour. In some recipes, the dough is kneaded on flakes and flour, taking them in equal proportions.
Cream fat is replaced by vegetable. All the ingredients are combined in a deep bowl and kneaded dough. Its consistency should be viscous. Knead for a long time is not necessary. Sweet pastry makes sugar or honey.
To make the cookies soft and fluffy, slaked soda or baking powder is added to the dough. It is left for some time to swell the flakes.
The taste of baking can be varied by adding pieces of fruit, nuts or dried fruits to the dough.
Spread the dough with a spoon on a parchment-laid baking sheet, or form it with wet hands.
Cookies bake until done. Before serving, you can tuck it with powdered sugar.
