Crispy around the edges, chewy in the middle—these Gluten Free Tahini Cookies are simply hard to resist. This recipe transforms 6 simple ingredients into a delicious vegan tahini cookie perfect for your tea or coffee break.
This recipe does not use any refined sugar or any other fat other than the mighty tahini itself. Tahini is a great ingredient as not only does it taste great but it’s also super rich in some key nutrients that you body actually needs (phosphorus, lecithin, magnesium, potassium, iron, calcium, vitamins E, B1, B2, B3, B5 and B15).
