Digestive biscuits

Description

Digestive biscuits are flat, golden-brown cookies with a slightly grainy texture and a mild, buttery-honey flavor with a distinct hint of whole grain. They are crunchy, not overly sweet, and have a delicately crumbly structure, making them enjoyable both on their own and in desserts. Nutritionally, they often rely on whole grain flour, providing complex carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and small amounts of protein and fat; they may also contain added B vitamins and iron, though it's important to pay attention to sugar and salt content. Due to their fiber content, they support a feeling of fullness and proper digestion when consumed in moderation. In the kitchen, digestive biscuits are perfect for an afternoon snack with tea or coffee, as a base for cheesecake and no-bake desserts, an ingredient for crumbles, or an addition to yogurts and muesli. To maintain freshness and crunchiness, store them in an airtight container or the original sealed package in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and strong odors.
