Who says you need to sacrifice taste for health? These Crispy Oatmeal Snacks are not only nutritious and tasty but also offer that satisfying crunch you crave from traditional fried snacks like French fries. Packed with fiber, healthy fats, and protein, these snacks are perfect for those who want to indulge without the guilt. Let’s dive into how to make this crispy, nutritious, and healthy treat that’s sure to become a household favorite.
Ingredients:
170 grams of water
75 grams of butter (or margarine/coconut oil) – Butter is recommended for a more natural and richer taste.
90 grams of instant oatmeal – If using regular oatmeal, grind it into a fine flour before using.
105 grams of eggs (about 2 medium to large eggs, weighed without the shell)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder (optional) – This adds a bit of lift but can leave a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Why This Recipe Works: This recipe combines the heartiness of oatmeal with the richness of butter and the binding power of eggs to create a snack that’s crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The absence of sugar ensures that the snacks won’t burn easily during baking, allowing them to become perfectly dry and crispy. By using oatmeal, you get a snack that’s lower in calories and higher in fiber than traditional fried snacks, making it a smarter choice for satisfying your crunchy cravings.
