Tahini Cookies – Paleo/Vegan

These cookies are a great egg-less snack that is both chewy and crispy. They can be whipped up in no time and kids love them! (Adults too)

All you need is a spatula, measuring cup and a mixing bowl to prepare and a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  You can play with the ingredients such as adding a table spoon of chia, flax or other seeds (or not using nuts/seeds at all).

Ingredients:

• ½ cups tahini
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 C shredded coconut (unsweetend)
• 2 Tbs. coconut flour
• pinch of unrefined salt
• ½ cup crushed walnuts or pecans

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, use a spatula and blend the tahini and maple syrup well.
3. Then add the cinnamon and mix well.
4. Then add the crushed nuts.
5. The batter will be very sticky so use a spoon to scoop (and another to scrape off the batter) using 1-2 Tbs of the batter for each cookie; shape and flatten.
6. Bake for about 10 minutes or until golden.
7. Let cool 10 minutes before eating.
