I hope you like them, and that you enjoy preparing these delicious wholemeal cookie recipes as much as I do.
I don’t know about you, but I started making cookies during lockdown and I haven’t stopped since. The truth is, I feel guilty buying them at the supermarket. I prefer making these delicious cookies at home because that way, at least I know what’s in them.
Actually, I’ve spent a lot of time experimenting with different recipes and combinations of wholemeal flours. I’ve mixed them with nut flours, for example, reducing the sugar. They’re still delicious; that was my goal.
Here you’ll find recipes for almost healthy wholemeal cookies for all tastes:
- Soft cookies, like “cakey cookies,” with a sponge-like texture. Made without eggs and with whipped cream cheese. There’s also another version of these cookies, but with carob flour…
- Crispy cookies, like “wholemeal oat cookies.” Made with whole wheat flour and oat flour.
- Some original mascarpone cookies, or some spiced speculoos cookies.
All delicious. Some are made with extra virgin olive oil, others with butter, others with yogurt…
They are all delicious, making them a great, almost healthy alternative to store-bought cookies.
