Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup tahini
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup almond flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ cup vegan chocolate chips
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of tahini, ½ cup of maple syrup, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Use a whisk or a spatula to mix these ingredients together until smooth and well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, mix together 1 cup of almond flour, ½ tsp of baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the dry ingredients are evenly combined.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring continuously until a thick dough forms. Make sure there are no dry spots and that everything is well blended.
- Fold in ½ cup of vegan chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
- Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-baking.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your Vegan Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies as a delicious treat or snack!
Tips
- Make sure your tahini is well-stirred and at room temperature for the smoothest dough consistency.
- Use high-quality vegan chocolate chips for the best flavor - look for brands with minimal ingredients.
- Don't overmix the dough, as this can make the cookies tough and dense.
- For perfectly shaped cookies, chill the dough for 15-20 minutes before baking if it feels too soft.
- Use a cookie scoop for uniform size and even baking.
- Allow cookies to cool completely on the wire rack to achieve the ideal texture.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer preservation.
- For extra indulgence, sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of each cookie right after baking for a gorgeous finish.
