Dietary corn cookies are a light and airy dessert perfect for those aiming for healthy eating. The recipe is based on corn and whole grain flour, giving the baked goods softness and a delicate texture. Historically, corn flour was widely used in Russian cuisine for various dishes due to its nutritional value. These cookies have a subtle sweet flavor complemented by the fluffiness of the egg mixture and the tenderness of sour cream. A light caramel crust makes them even more appetizing. They are an excellent option for morning coffee or tea and a healthy snack throughout the day.
