Makes about 2 dozen
Ingredients:
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup tahini
1/4 cup toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
3 tablespoons sesame seeds
Method:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Grind oats in a blender or food processor until coarsely ground. (Do not wash the blender.) In a large bowl, whisk together oats, flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
Combine maple syrup, tahini, sesame oil, cornstarch and vanilla in the blender and blend until smooth. Stir tahini mixture into oat mixture.
Spread sesame seeds onto a large plate. Using a tablespoon, scoop cookie dough onto the plate and roll into balls, coating with sesame seeds. Arrange dough on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake until cookies are golden brown on the bottom and puffed, 10 to 12 minutes.
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack and let cool completely. Cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
