Oatmeal honey cookies without eggs and sugar

Oats are considered the most unique cereal. Both its shell and the inner part contain a large set of nutritional components that have a positive effect on the human body. That's why oat flakes are so popular. Oatmeal porridge, prepared on the basis of this product, cleanses the digestive tract and has a lot of other positive qualities.

Depending on the quality and method of processing raw materials, oat flakes are produced in three types: "Hercules", petal and "Extra". "Hercules" and petal are produced from oatmeal of the highest grade.

By themselves, "Hercules" are oat flakes. The only difference is that "Hercules" is processed, during which bran is removed, containing B vitamins and fiber in its composition. Then the grains undergo high-temperature heat treatment with steam in order to reduce the cooking time of the dish.

Oat flakes are a source of polysaccharides, i.e. carbohydrates, which maintain the energy level of the human body without sudden fluctuations, normalizing blood sugar levels. Polysaccharides have a longer processing period in the body than mono- and disaccharides. Oat bran contains a large amount of dietary fiber, helps to reduce the concentration of cholesterol in the blood, improves the activity of the heart. If salt and sugar were not added to ready-made breakfasts, an oatmeal diet may be beneficial for preventing the development of hypertension and diabetes. Oat flakes are also used for cosmetic purposes, for example, in face masks.
