SUGAR-FREE BUTTER AND CHEESE COOKIES
Maybe reading butter and cheese cookies might make you a little confused, wait a bit and keep reading, I assure you it’s worth it.
Lately I’ve been on a very low-carb diet. If you’ve been following me, you already know that I’m a type II diabetic, and that it all started during my pregnancy with gestational diabetes. You also know that’s why I changed direction and decided to study dietetics and nutrition.
Now as a dietitian and nutritional consultant (the English term is health coach), I try to help other people find their way just like I did, which wasn’t easy at all.
Not all the recipes you find online are suitable for your diet; you’ll need to select them and adapt them.
The recipes that I share on this page are the ones I usually make at home, the ones that I like and that adapt to my nutritional plan at all times.
But that does not mean that they are the best for everyone, I tell you the peculiarities of each one of them and how they can be adapted to your nutritional plan, but there will be times when these recipes will not be suitable, you should be able to realize based on what I explain to you.
Why am I telling you this?
Because once again we are faced with a recipe that does not contain sugar and does not contain wheat flour or other cereals, but it is rich in fats, they are healthy fats that we can all consume from time to time, but I do not recommend that you consume in excess if your diet is the classic balanced diet.
Butter and cheese cookies are low in carbohydrates and high in healthy fats.
These butter and cheese cookies are ideal for low-carb diets and ketogenic diets (without abusing them), but you can’t eat them like crazy on a conventional diet.
What fats do they contain? Butter, cream cheese, almond fat, coconut fat, and chocolate fat.
Is eating a couple of them really going to hurt me? In no case, but are you sure it will only be a couple?
When you try these cookies you will realize how easy it is to make something delicious in a moment and how few ingredients you need.
Why I like them so much:
- They are very easy to make and they always turn out well.
- When you bite into them they melt in your mouth.
- They are filling, you can eat just one with your tea or coffee and you won’t need anything else.
- They keep very well in the refrigerator.
- Perfect to take along as a snack.
