How to Prepare Tahini Chocolate Cookies [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Start off by adding the chia seeds into a small bowl, add the water and set aside to absorb the water and swell. This will be the binding agent for the recipe — the chia egg.
  3. Next, place the melted coconut oil into a large mixing bowl. Add the tahini and rice malt syrup and mix together. Slowly add the carob powder and mix further.
  4. Add the chia egg once it has swelled, and mix through. Next add the salt, baking soda, almond meal, and gluten-free flour.
  5. Mix all ingredients well until all are combined.
  6. On a lined baking tray, spoon spoonfuls of the mixture into your hands and roll into balls.
  7. Evenly distribute the balls over the tray, and using a fork, squish down each ball into a cookie shape.
  8. Place into the oven and bake for 20 minutes, until golden and cooked through. Times may vary according to different ovens.
  9. Remove from oven, lightly sprinkle with sesame seeds and allow to cool for 10-15 minutes.
