We rub the softened butter with sugar, it should become a few tones lighter, and the grain of sugar dissolve. When the mass became smooth and similar to the cream, we add separately with a pinch of salt whipped eggs. If you want, add vanillin or cinnamon. Also, as a pleasant additive in the dough, you can use lemon peel, finely chopped candied fruits, pieces of chocolate or raisins. When the mass is mixed, grind the "Hercules" rather finely, mix them with flour and, gradually pouring, we achieve the density of the dough, like a pie. It should not be very dense, but it should not spread too much. If the flakes are small, by the way, you can not grind them.

Flakes crush almost in flour - very finely. This is not an ordinary oatmeal cookie - the recipe for a delicacy baked without flour is simpler and much more useful. Honey was chosen acacia, as it is the least sweet and least allergenic product, but you can, in principle, use any floral. So, chopped flakes pour oil and honey and begin to stir, add salt, add hydrated soda and vanillin. It is better to add it, so that the biscuit gets a more intense flavor of sweetness. When the dough has become more or less homogeneous mass, we spread it portion by section on the baking sheet with oiled paper and send the minutes for 15-20 in the oven.
