Description

Delicious combination of sesame and pistachio in small cookies. Definitely worth trying it!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup (100g) honey
  • 3.5 oz. (100g) tahini (sesame) paste
  • 1 tbsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (100g) ground almonds

Instructions

  1. Add the honey, tahini, and vanilla extract to a microwave-safe bowl and heat up in the microwave on high for about 20 seconds. Mix and heat up again in the microwave, mix again. Repeat until the mixture is well combined and smooth. Set aside. Add the ground almonds, baking powder, and salt to a large bowl and mix until well combined. Add the tahini mixture to bowl and mix until combined. Place in the fridge for about 10 minutes.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Chop the pistachios and set aside. Form 12 balls out of the dough and flatten a bit, place on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the chopped pistachios (press a bit into the dough so they won’t fall off). Bake for 8-10 minutes. They should have a nice golden color. Take out of the oven and let cool down on the baking sheet.
