Serves: 16-18 cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons quick cooking oats
  • pinch salt (~1/8 teaspoon, or a little more)
  • ⅓ cup chopped walnuts or almonds
  • ⅓ cup dark chocolate chips
  • ⅓ cup tahini
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the oats, salt, nuts, and chocolate chips. In a separate bowl, whisk together the tahini, maple syrup, and cinnamon.
  3. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir well until the liquid is evenly distributed.
  4. Wet your hands and scoop out a heaping tablespoon and form it into a thick cookie shape. Add it to the baking sheet and repeat, wetting your hands whenever necessary. If the cookie doesn't completely hold together, it's ok - it'll solidify as it bakes!
  5. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Once done baking, remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes. (If you try to pick one up right out of the oven, it will fall apart!)
  6. Store in an air-tight container.
