The author of this recipe says it’s cookies and in her blog they really look like cookies. In my case, they are balls and the texture is between cookies and buns. Therefore, we call them just balls. The first day they have crispy exterior and the next they are all soft. In my family, they are enjoyed in all forms. Just I have to hide some if I want to enjoy them next day. By the way, you can see from the ingredient list that all sweetness comes from just one tablespoon of honey, so in our opinion they are not cookies at all 🙂 But if you will enjoy them with a sweet drink, they will be perfect companions.
I still afraid to use rye flour in sweet baking, but these balls really fit here and encourage me to try other sweets with them.

Corn bake with curd
There is no secret – we like groats with curd :). Long time ago I tried this recipe, so this time I made it again. It was very tasty for all of us. We ate with sour cream. Only next time I will try to make porridge not so stiff :). I need more practice cooking porridge because I never get the same consistence :).
Rye bread sticks with flaxseeds
Healthy snack that all my family enjoy. I baked them twice. First time whole flaxseeds I added on top of breadsticks but they easily dropped of, so next time I put them inside the breadsticks and we like it that way.
Baked cottage cheese cakes with bran
Very quick and healthy cottage cheese cakes. You can prepare them in 5 minutes and then, while they are baking, you can prepare salads or food for other family members, who don’t want to eat so healthy.
Layered curd and bread dessert
One more delicious thing from ordinary products. It’s not very sweet but that’s what we need after holidays 🙂 Also it’s very good for using up stale bread. To tell the truth neither I or my husband expected that it will be so delicious. Kids liked it too. When we tasted this dessert at the same day, the bread crumbs were very crunchy, the next day – they became soft, but both days it was real pleasure to eat it.
Cottage cheese and potatoes dumplings
At first I just wanted to make photo and upload it to Mano receptai.lt. But when my family tasted them, I understood that they are really good and they deserve to be posted here. I have tried to boil cottage cheese and potato dumplings without the recipe, bet they never tasted as good as these. I think the secret is good cottage cheese and potato proportions. So I really recommend to try this a little bit simplified version of dumplings.
