Cookies without butter, milk, and eggs

Line a baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper and place the cookies on top.
Briefly preheat the oven.
Bake at 356°F for about 20 minutes in a fan-assisted oven until evenly golden.
Temperatures and times may vary from oven to oven and depending on the thickness of the cookies.Your whole wheat cinnamon cookies without butter, milk, and eggs are ready.

We allow ourselves to have them occasionally at breakfast as a substitute for whole wheat rusks or whole wheat semolina bread.
Example our typical breakfast:
• skim milk 150 g → low-fat yogurt 130 g;
• whole wheat rusks 15 g → whole wheat semolina bread 30 g → whole wheat cookies [for the weight, I refer to whole wheat rusks].As suggested by Professor Enzo Bonora
It is especially important in the presence of diabetes to gain experience with the impact of this and all other foods on blood sugar. This means measuring before and two hours after eating. Possibly more than once to get more reliable information. If the glycemic increase is contained [below 50 mg], you can put a “green light” on that type of food. Otherwise, it’s better to avoid it.
