These tahini cookies are nutty, lightly sweet, and naturally gluten-free, with a delicate crunch from sesame seeds. Perfect for a quick and wholesome treat.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sesame seeds
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread the sesame seeds in a shallow dish.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the honey, tahini, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the dry ingredients and stir until well combined.
  4. Using a cookie scoop, form the dough into balls. Roll each ball in sesame seeds, then flatten into 1/4-inch-thick rounds.
  5. Place cookies on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake for about 8 minutes, until the bottoms are golden, rotating pans halfway through.
  7. Transfer cookies to a rack and allow to cool before serving.

Notes

  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
  • For extra flavor, lightly toast the sesame seeds before coating.
  • If dough is too sticky, chill it for 10–15 minutes before shaping.
  • These cookies pair well with tea or coffee.
