Scale

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1/4 cup oat flour (or all-purpose flour, see notes)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • pinch ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, plus flaky sea salt to top
  • 1.5 oz chopped vegan chocolate or chocolate chips (see notes)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, a silpat or lightly grease and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix the tahini, maple syrup and vanilla extract until combined.
  3. Add in the oats, flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt and mix together again. Stir in the chocolate and let sit for 5 minutes. This allows the oats to soften in the mixture before baking.
  4. Scoop the cookies (I use this cookie scoop) onto the prepared parchment paper. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt*** and bake for 9-10 minutes, until golden brown on top but still soft in the center.
  5. Remove and let cool on the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

*To make oat flour: Place oats into a blender and blend until a flour forms. Or, you can use all-purpose flour.

** I tried these with dark chocolate and much prefer the taste of milk chocolate with these!

***This is my favorite sea salt! It’s so flaky and perfect in these cookies.
