Ingredients Needed

  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: 1/4 cup chopped almonds or chocolate chips

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine tahini, almond butter, honey, and vanilla until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk together oats, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until well combined. Fold in any optional add-ins like chopped almonds or chocolate chips.

Using a spoon or cookie scoop, form the dough into small balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a fork or your fingers. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
