The ricotta and oat flour cookies are rustic treats with an imperfect shape, because you make them by hand without using molds, but they are incredibly delicious.

The ricotta combined with the fragrant oat flour has created a perfect match, making them ideal for genuine and healthy breakfasts or snacks.

Suitable for those who want to indulge in cuddles and lightness without neglecting taste and indulgence.

They contain no butter but excellent extra virgin olive oil.

Hello, I'm Simona, and my page is called BriCciola in cucina, because I dedicated it to my mom and dad, who have called me that since I was little. I'm not a chef, and in my life, I've always dealt with completely different things, but cooking, along with dancing, has always been one of my great passions. However, my greatest inspiration came from the dishes prepared first by my grandmother and now by my mom. Here on my cooking blog, I'll guide you from appetizers to desserts, with recipes designed for a healthy and mindful lifestyle. Balanced dishes, carefully chosen ingredients, and lots of flavors, because eating well never means giving up pleasure. I love eating, but I also like taking care of my health, my family's health, and, in a way, the health of everyone who tries my recipes. That's why daily life should be rich in flavor, but always with a focus on healthy eating. Thank you, I look forward to seeing you.
