Sweet & Salty Miso Tahini Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 cup tahini

  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar 

  • 3 tbsp white miso paste, I used Trader Joe’s

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

  • 2 cups almond flour, packed

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 tbsp white sesame seeds, plus more for topping 

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  2. In a bowl, combine tahini, coconut sugar, miso paste, egg and vanilla. Stir until well combined.

  3. Add almond flour, baking soda, salt and sesame seeds. Stir again until well combined (batter will be thick!). Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

  4. After refrigerating dough for 30 mins, form dough into the size of a golf ball and flatten slightly on your prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with additional sesame seeds.

  5. Bake for 10 minutes or until slightly golden. Let cool for at least 30 minutes and store in an air tight container in the fridge or freezer (I like to use parchment to separate layers so they don’t stick!).
