Healthy, because
This yoghurt is nutritious and versatile! One portion provides plenty of calcium, which builds up bones and keeps teeth stable. This is especially important in childhood and youth. Because a good supply of calcium ensures optimal bone development and prevents osteoporosis in old age.
Even smarter
For more crunch you can add coarsely chopped walnut kernels to the cookie crumbs. The nuts are particularly rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are important for healthy brain development and strengthen memory and concentration.
