What do you think about three-ingredient cookies?
Ingredients:
240 g chopped and roasted hazelnuts
80 g erythritol
2 eggs
Optional: “powdered xylitol” (finely ground erythritol)
Servings: Around 24 cookies
Effort: Low Just whip egg whites, mix ingredients, and bake!
Nutritional Profile: Moderate We’re cutting back on sugar and boosting protein—this is baking for the modern day.
Michaela's Opinion: When you’re in a hurry, these uncomplicated cookies are a true SOS solution for the stressful holiday season.
Instructions:
1.Carefully separate the eggs and use a hand mixer to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
2. Combine the chopped, roasted hazelnuts with erythritol and gently fold the mixture into the beaten egg whites.
3.Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a tablespoon to place small, round portions of the cookie mixture onto the sheet.
4.Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F), top and bottom heat, for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
5. Allow the cookies to cool completely, and optionally dust them with powdered xylitol before serving.
Michaela's Disclaimer: Artificial sweeteners should not be consumed without limits—calorie-free doesn’t necessarily mean healthier. Especially during the holiday season, it can be wise to enjoy treats in moderation.
Michaela's Tip: Nut allergy? If no other intolerances are present, you can substitute with sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, or flaxseeds.
