Tahini Crisp Cookies
Megan Says: My tahini cookies look simple but they are truly decadent sesame cookies that hold a punch of flavor. I always like a cookie that is crisp on the outside while still soft and chewy on the inside. These cookies are packed with plant protein and fiber from sesame seeds and oats. Easy to make in one bowl, plus it’s fun to bake: you boil the maple syrup and tahini together in a pot over the stove, then pour in the vanilla and watch the magic as the dough caramelizes right before your eyes.

Recipe Notes

1. Let’s take a saucepan.
2. Combine tahini and maple syrup in a medium-sized saucepan.
Begin to heat over medium heat and stir constantly until the ingredients boil gently.
Keep boiling for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, as the ingredients let off steam and caramelize slightly.
3. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
The alcohol in the extract will bubble off in the hot mixture.
Transfer the tahini mixture into a large bowl and stir in oat flour, whole oats, and salt.
Mix until it forms a stiff dough.
4. Cool cookie dough for 1 hour or refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Scoop cool cookie dough into 2-tablespoon-sized balls, place onto baking sheets.
Flatten each cookie to make around. Sprinkle crystal salt on tops. Make 20 cookies.
5. Bake 14 minutes until cookie edges and bottoms brown and the cookies become firm on the outside but stay chewy on the inside.
6. Serve to all the cookie lovers.
