Tahini Cookies
These smell AMAZING when they are baking! And hard to resist while you let them cool. Perfect combo oof chewy inside and crunchy outside. Tahini is a great source of calcium, zinc and iron, plus about 20% protein - so definitely a great healthy option.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup Tahini 
- 1/2 cup Maple Syrup 
- 1 1/4 cups Almond Meal 
- 3/4 cup Tapioca starch/ flour 
- 1/2 tsp baking powder 
- 1/2 tsp sea salt 
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds 
Method:
- Preheat oven to 180 C and line a couple of baking trays. 
- Whisk tahini and maple syrup in a medium bowl until smooth. 
- Add the almond meal, tapioca flour, baking powder and salt and gently fold through to combine (a spatula works well). 
- Roll 1TBS size mixture into balls, dip into the sesame seeds, and place onto the tray pressing lightly. 
- Popthem in the oven for 12 mins, until lightly golden on the sides. 
- Let cool for 5 mins, and enjoy! 
- Store in an airtight container for a week (if they last that long!).
