Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour

• 1 cup tahini (liquidy tahini works best)

• ½ cup maple syrup

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp baking soda

• 1 heaping cup of chocolate chips  ( I like Hu or Lily’s)

• sea salt flakes for topping

Instructions

1.      Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside

2.      In a medium size bowl, mix together the almond flour, tahini, maple syrup, and chocolate chips

3.      The dough should be thick. If it's not, add a little bit more almond flour.

4.      Mix to ensure everything is coated well, and place the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. (don’t skip this step!)

5.      While the dough is chilling, preheat oven to 350 F.

6.      Remove bowl from the refrigerator, and add the egg and baking soda, and mix together until fully incorporated.

7.      Scoop dough and form 16 cookies.

8.      Bake for 10-11 minutes. (they should be slightly undercooked as they will be crispy on the bottom as they cool)

9.      Remove from the oven, sprinkle with sea salt and let the cookies settle before eating
