These flower cookies are gluten-free and lactose-free, light and crumbly. Perfect for breakfast, suitable for both celiacs and those who are lactose intolerant.
Wheat flour can be replaced with rice, almond, corn, and chestnut flour, as they are all naturally gluten-free.
Being celiac does not mean giving up sweets, in fact, many recipes can be made with gluten-free flours, such as the one with Schär or Biaglut.
Well then, I just leave you with the recipe and wait for you on my Facebook page, my Instagram profile, and my YouTube channel with my videos for a greeting and a comment.
