Equipment

  • Cookie sheet

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup tahini (56 g) sub other drippy nut/seed butter
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup (42 g)
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup flour (40 g) gf all purpose if desired
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips (45 g)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F and line a cookie sheet with parchment.
  • In a large bowl blend tahini, maple syrup, vanilla until smooth.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, salt.
  • Add dry into wet and combine with a spatula, stopping as soon as a soft non-sticky dough forms. You may not need all of the flour depending on your nut/seed butter. If your dough gets too dry and crumbly, add 1/2 tsp water at a time to combine. If it's too wet, refrigerate 5 min to firm it back up or add a pinch of flour.
  • Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Scoop on the cookie sheet, shape them if you like and bake 12 minutes until slightly golden.
  • Let cookies cool and enjoy! Store leftovers in a sealed container in room temp.

Notes

  • Recipe will make 8 small 3-bite cookies or 6 regular sized once. I happened to make 8 that day.
  • I’ve made these with peanut butter and almond butter as well and they were amazing.
  • I also recently discovered that you can totally microwave these instead of waiting for them to bake 😱 I will make a separate post on that later!
