Friends of good food, happy start to the week! Let's begin by sweetening our lives a little, because we need it, but within healthy limits, without going crazy, sticking to our diets鈥攚ell, those of us who are on a diet, that is.馃槃
As I've said before, I have several recipes that I want to try out and see how they turn out, venturing into the art of cooking and learning to eat healthily, which is no easy task, as I well know. However, it's all a matter of practice, patience, and, most importantly, variety in our dishes.
Today I bring you this improvised recipe. Yesterday I set up the nativity scene in my house and was very tired, but I still wanted to eat something delicious. I remembered that I had been thinking about making some ginger cookies, so I checked to see if I had the ingredients, and I still had some oatmeal left.
In this case, I used the following quantities, but you can use more to make several cookies. I didn't have much, so I did what I could with what I had.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of oat flour
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon of vanilla
- 1/2 tablespoon of ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon of ginger
- Honey
- Coconut oil
Preparation:
Okay, now let's get started with the preparation. The first thing I did was add the egg to a bowl, then I added the vanilla, ground cinnamon, a dash of honey, and the oil, along with a tablespoon of ginger, although I confess it was very little. I should have added a little more so you could taste it, but these are details you learn as you go.
Once that was done, I beat it a little, then added the flour. I know I need more photos, but it happens to everyone鈥攜ou're busy preparing and you forget to take pictures, ha ha ha. It's a little complicated to work like this, but anyway, what I needed to show you was what the mixture would look like.
Now that we have the flour, we are left with a thicker mixture. What we do here is take our dough and shape our cookies. As you can see, I only made a few, three cookies to be exact. We can say that these were test cookies. Next time, I will make more by doubling the amount.
What I put on top are some dried cranberries to give them a sweet taste.
Finally, this was the result. This is how my delicious cookies turned out, and yes, they were really tasty, although as I said, I should have added more ginger to give them that spicy flavor, haha. Next time.
Well, guys, remember that I'm a learner, so any information you want to share with me to help me learn will be greatly appreciated. I'll read your comments.
See you next time. 馃槏

Amigos de la buena comida, feliz inicio de semana, empezamos endulz谩ndonos un poco la vida, porque bien que hace falta, eso s铆, dentro de lo saludable, sin volvernos locos, cumpliendo nuestra dieta; bueno, los que estamos en dieta.馃槃
Como he dicho anteriormente, tengo varias recetas por all铆, que quiero probar, a ver como me salen, incursionando en este arte de la cocina, aprendiendo a comer sano, sobre todo esto, el cual no es tarea f谩cil, si lo sabr茅 yo, sin embargo, todo es cuesti贸n de pr谩ctica, de paciencia y lo m谩s importante, la variedad en nuestros platos.
Hoy les traigo esta receta improvisada, es que el d铆a de ayer me puse a montar el nacimiento en mi casa, y quede muy cansada, aun as铆 ten铆a ganas de comer algo rico, record茅 que ten铆a pensando hacer unas galletas de jengibre, revise si ten铆a los ingredientes y bueno a煤n me quedaba algo de harina de avena.
En este caso use la siguiente cantidad, pero ustedes pueden usar m谩s, para que les salga varias galletas, yo no ten铆a mucho, as铆 que hice lo que pude con lo que contaba.
Ingredientes:
- 1 taza de harina de avena
- 1 Huevo
- 1 cucharada de vainilla
- 1/2 cucharada de Canela en polvo
- 1 cucharada de jengibre
- Miel
- Aceite de coco
Preparaci贸n:
Bien, ahora vamos a la preparaci贸n, lo primero que hice fue agregar en un bolw el huevo, all铆 le a帽ad铆 la vainilla, la canela en polvo, un chorrito de miel, y el aceite, la cucharada de jengibre, aunque confieso fue muy poco, deb铆 a帽adirle un poco para que se sintiera el sabor, pero son detalles que uno va aprendiendo.
Ya con esto, lo batimos un poco, para luego agregarle la harina, s茅 que me falto m谩s fotos, pero no les pasa, que est谩n preparando y se les olvida tomar la foto jajaja, es un poco complicado trabajar as铆, pero bueno, lo que me falto fue mostrarles como quedar铆a la mezcla.
Ya con la harina, nos queda una mezcla m谩s espesa, aqu铆 lo que hacemos es tomar nuestra masa y armar nuestras galletas, como ven me salieron muy pocas, tres galletas para ser exactos, podemos decir que estas fueron de prueba, para la pr贸xima har茅 m谩s, duplicando la cantidad.
Lo que le puse encima son unos ar谩ndanos rojos secos, para darle es gusto dulce.
Finalmente, este fue el resultado, as铆 quedaron mis ricas galletas, y s铆, la verdad quedaron muy ricas, aunque como dije, me falto a帽adirle m谩s jengibre para que se sienta ese sabor picoso jeje, para la pr贸xima.
Bueno, chicos, recuerden que soy una aprendiz, cualquier dato que me quieran aportar para aprender, estar茅 agradecida, los leo en los comentarios.
Hasta la pr贸xima.馃槏
