cookie jar: almond flour tahini cookies {vegan}

While still a fan of those 3-ingredient cookies I shared last year, I wanted something more………….”cookie-like”. A little more texture, a little sweeter, but still vegan/gluten-free/full-of-tahini flavor.

Almond Flour Tahini Cookies
slightly adapted from Cook Republic

3/4 cup tahini (read here for my tip for dealing with that pesky can!)
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups almond flour

Pre-heat the oven to 340 degrees; line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Combine the first four ingredients in a medium bowl, stirring till smooth. Add the almond flour and stir again. Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to scoop the dough out onto your baking sheets. Roll each scoop into a ball and flatten slightly with your fingers.

Bake for 10 minutes, then turn off the oven and let the trays continue to sit for another 3 – 5 minutes. Remove from oven and transfer cookies to a rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

    I’m making these for a friend that’s vegan! Is there any vitality oil that I could add?

    What are the nutritional facts per cookie?

      I don’t have the nutritional info for the recipe – but there are many sites on-line where you can plug in the ingredients and it will give you a nutritional profile!

    could I swap the maple syrup with/for amazake? 🙂

      I’ve not tried that so I can’t say but if you do I’d love to know how it works out!

    My cookies turns too soft and soggy

    • sherisilver on September 2, 2020 at 8:37 am

      I’m so sorry to hear that – I’ve never had that problem with these cookies! It might be the type of tahini? – there are varying degrees of fat and that could affect the texture of the cookies. Did you let them sit in the oven after you turned it off? That helps crisp them up too. I hope this helps! 🙂
