Description

Fat-free cookies are a type of baked cookie made without adding fats such as butter, margarine, or oils. They are a light and healthier alternative to traditional cookies, ideal for people looking to reduce their consumption of saturated fats or control their caloric intake.

These cookies are typically made from ingredients like flour, water, natural sugars, and leavening agents, maintaining a crunchy texture and a mild flavor. Their origin is not associated with a specific region, as the production of fat-free cookies is a modern adaptation created to meet the demands of healthy eating worldwide.

Properties: Fat-free cookies are notable for their low calorie and fat content, making them a recommended option for people on low-fat diets, individuals with cardiovascular problems, or those looking to maintain a healthy weight. They can be a good source of carbohydrates for quick energy, although their nutritional value depends on the specific ingredients used in their preparation.

Synonyms in Hispanic America: depending on the country, fat-free cookies may also be known as light biscuits, cookies without butter, or simply light cookies. In some places, the term dietetic cookies is used to refer to similar products with low fat or sugar content.
