Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup (I halved the amount in the original recipe because I found it was too sweet for my taste)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chunks or chips made from extra bitter chocolate

Instructions

  • Mix the tahini with the maple syrup and the cinnamon in a bowl. 
  • Add in the almond flour and the oats, then mix.
  • Fold in the chocolate chunks. Mix again.
  • The dough should be sticky but will not hold together completely (that's ok!). Roll out balls of dough in your hands and place them on a baking sheet.
  • Squash each dough ball with a spatula to flatten it out a bit.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes at 175C.
  • You can sprinkle a bit of sea salt on top when they come out of the oven (but I don’t find it necessary).
