Cookies are a delightful treat, but they often come loaded with sugar and artificial ingredients. However, it’s possible to recreate the joy of a good cookie without compromising on health. Zoe’s almond cookie recipe is a perfect example of this. While it does contain sugar, it’s free from emulsifiers and maltodextrin, those additives often found in commercially produced cookies. These additives are designed to extend shelf life and increase profitability, but they may have negative impacts on your health.
