Flax sweetness

10 servings

10 minutes

Flaxseed candy is a refined treat embodying the simplicity and benefits of natural ingredients. Based on ground flaxseeds, it has roots in European healthy eating traditions where natural products and their healing properties were valued. Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, with their light nutty flavor harmoniously complemented by the sweetness of honey. After cooling, the mixture turns into tender and dense candies, with whole flaxseeds adding extra texture. These sweets can be served with tea, used as a healthy snack, or even included in a diet menu. They are not only tasty but also support health.
