Grind oatmeal in a coffee grinder.

Step 5

Step 5
Prepare instant coffee with 120 ml of hot water. And let it cool for a couple of minutes.

Step 6

Step 6
Add coffee to the dry mixture a little at a time and knead the dough. The dough should be thick enough so that you can then mold “coffee beans” from it, so the liquid may come out a little less or a little more, adjust the amount based on the consistency. Then let the finished mixture sit for 15 minutes.

Step 7

Step 7
The parchment needs to be slightly greased with vegetable oil, I have a silicone mat, I don’t lubricate it with anything. We pinch off pieces of the dough and form balls like these. It is better to moisten your palms a little with water.

Step 8

Step 8
We have coffee beans, right?)) We take a toothpick and make indentations in the middle — we imitate the shape of a coffee bean) Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes and bake the cookies)) Be guided by your ovens, do not overbake the cookies)))

These cookies are a great start to the day with a cup of aromatic coffee! And one more plus — they can be cooked and eaten even during Lent) You can store them in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator for no more than 3 days. But they couldn’t stand it for us for so long — they are eaten instantly)))
