Tahini, honey and almond cookies



These are gluten free; always check your baking powder to make sure they are gluten free. These are more of a cakey biscuit, not crunchy. 

Makes 18

Ingredients

½ cup of coconut flour
½ cup of gluten free flour blend
1 tbsp tahini
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt
100g butter
2 eggs (have at room temperature)
¼ cup of honey
¼ cup of slivered almonds

Method

Preheat oven to 180C.
In a large bowl put all your flours, salt, and baking powder.
In another smaller bowl soften your butter then add your vanilla and then beat in your honey, you can use a hand mixer, mix well and then beat in your eggs one at a time until thoroughly mixed in.Add tahini and mix.
Add butter/egg mix to the flours and mix well.

Roll into balls and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper then press a wet fork onto the balls to flatten them a little until they are pattie shaped. Then sprinkle on your almonds and gently press in.
Bake for 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Leave for 10 minutes on the tray then leave to cool on a cooling rack. Store in an airtight container; assuming you don’t eat them all that day!
