The Holiday baking is still on, especially when it’s cold and snowy outside. For this year’s final baking adventure, I picked cookies flavored with tahini and peanut butter. The best thing about them is the way they melt in your mouth. They are very soft and tasty. Would be a perfect pair for an afternoon tea or coffee.
They are of course vegan, don’t contain refined sugar and baked with almond flour. Here is the simple recipe:
Tahini & Peanut Butter Cookies
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour (not almond meal)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/3 cup tahini
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
-
Mix the almond flour and baking powder in a bowl.
-
In a separate bowl, combine and mix all rest of the ingredients and pour the mixture into the other bowl.
-
Mix thoroughly. The batter will be loose (if too loose, add little more almond flour).
-
Line a parchment paper on a baking pan.
-
Pour the mixture into the pan, 1 tablespoon at a time. Give each piece a round shape with the help of a spoon.
-
Bake at 350 degrees F for around 12-14 minutes. Do not over bake since they are supposed to be soft.
Voila! They are simple yet very delicious. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. They are yummy!
Love,
