Corn flour cookies with flax seeds

A simple and accessible recipe for a relatively healthy dessert. It is perfect for tea, as a snack on the go or at work.

If we exclude sugar from the list of ingredients, we get a salty cracker that can be used instead of bread for soups.

As an addition, not only flax seeds are suitable, but also sesame, pumpkin seeds, pieces of dried fruits, various nuts or their mixtures.

Cooking time: 20 minutes.

Serves: 3.

Ingredients

• corn and wheat flour - 110 g each;
• water - 100 ml;
• vegetable oil (without a strong taste and aroma) - 4 tbsp;
• flax seeds - 5 tbsp;
• baking powder - 1 tsp;
• sugar - 3 tsp;
• salt - 1 tsp, leveled.

Preparation

1. In a bowl, combine two types of flour, baking powder, and mix (preferably with a whisk) - this will allow the mixture to be aerated and evenly distribute the components.

2. Mix water and oil with salt and sugar, and after they dissolve, pour into the prepared flour mixture. Knead the dough. It should be pliable, soft, and not stick to your hands.

3. Add the remaining ingredient - flax seeds. Knead until the seeds are evenly distributed.

4. On parchment paper (you can also use a silicone mat), roll out the dough to a thickness of 2-3 mm. Shape the cookies as desired and inspired - this can be cutting them into diamonds, triangles, squares, strips, circles, or any other shapes.

5. Place the shapes in the oven and bake for about fifteen minutes at 190 degrees. You should rely on the appearance of the baking: if you prefer a crispy cracker, keep it longer until a rich golden color is achieved, and if you like soft and delicate cookies, take them out of the oven as soon as the edges start to turn golden.

Corn flour cookies with flax seeds are ready. Enjoy your meal.
