Light apple biscuits, without egg and butter: 3 quick recipes!

Ingredients for the first proposal: biscuits with oats and chocolate chips

• 75 grams of oat bran,
• 75 grams of oat flakes
• 20 grams of stevia,
• 50 grams of plain yoghurt 0 fat or max 5%,
• 200 grams of blended apple,
• half a spoonful of cinnamon,
• 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel,
• 1 tablespoon instant yeast powder,
• 1 sachet of vanillin
• a handful of dark chocolate chips

Preparation

There is nothing simpler than making these biscuits. We simply have to mix all the ingredients together. We can use a spatula, a whisk or even simply our hands. The important thing is to be able to create a lump-free dough. Once obtained, take portions with a spoon, place them on a baking tray covered with baking paper and flatten them, so as to give them a round shape.

Bake in a hot oven, fan mode, central shelf, at 190° for 30-35 minutes.

Our first proposal is already ready.

Ingredients for the second proposal: light and soft apple biscuits

• 150 grams of type 1 flour,
• 1 apple,
• 40 grams of oil,
• 1 jar of sugar-free plain yogurt,
• half a spoonful of cinnamon,
• 1 tablespoon grated orange peel,
• 1 tablespoon instant yeast powder,
• 1 sachet of vanillin,
• 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips

Preparation

Peel and cut the apple into cubes, place it in a non-stick pan together with the cinnamon and two tablespoons of stevia. Cook over a moderate heat with a lid for 15 -20 minutes, until the apples soften. When they are ready, let’s keep them aside for a moment and dedicate ourselves to the dough. Place all the ingredients in a bowl, save the flour for last, adding it little by little only when the other elements are perfectly blended. Knead until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous dough. Only at this point will we insert the previously cooked apples.

Divide the dough into portions and place them on a baking tray covered with baking paper. We work the portions to create balls and then flatten them to give a circular shape, place an almond in the center and bake in a hot oven, fan mode, central shelf at 180° for 35-40 minutes.

The second proposal is also done, soft and delicate will win us over.

Ingredients for the third proposal: apple-filled biscuits

• 250 grams of type 1 flour,
• 40 grams of stevia,
• 1 apple,
• 40 grams of seed oil,
• 1 jar of sugar-free plain yogurt,
• half a spoonful of cinnamon,
• 1 teaspoon grated orange peel,
• 1 tablespoon instant yeast powder,
• 1 sachet of vanillin.

Preparation

We prepare the apples as in the previous recipe. Also in this case let’s keep it aside for a moment. We put all the remaining ingredients in a bowl and knead until we obtain a rather compact dough without lumps. Using a rolling pin we roll out the dough to a thickness of a couple of millimetres, with a pastry cutter or a glass we form circles. Place a few pieces of cooked apple on each circle and cover with another circle of dough. We seal the edges well. Place them on a baking tray covered with baking paper and bake in a hot oven, central shelf, ventilated mode at 180° for 35-40 minutes.

Last proposal completed.

Some variations of light apple biscuits

These three recipes are really delicious as they are but can lend themselves to some variations:

• 0.00 or type 2 flour instead of type 1,
• 55 grams of sugar for the first proposal and 85 grams for the other two instead of stevia.
• We can always use honey or maple syrup to replace stevia. 45 grams for the first biscuits, 70 grams for the other two.
• Again, instead of the sweetener, agave syrup can be used, 40 grams for the oat biscuits, 60 grams for the other two proposals.
• Yogurt can be of any type.
• Finally, you can replace the chocolate chips with goji berries.

Let’s try all the proposals and all the variations, we will surely find our favorite biscuit!
