Description

Imagine sinking your teeth into a cookie that is both satisfyingly sweet and wonderfully soft. These delightful treats offer a guilt-free indulgence, crafted to be entirely free of both eggs and dairy. They present a wonderful alternative for those with dietary restrictions or anyone seeking a lighter, plant-based dessert option.

The foundation of these cookies is built upon the wholesome goodness of almonds, lending a subtle nutty flavor and a delicate crumbly texture that melts in your mouth. This almond base provides essential healthy fats, turning a simple cookie into a nourishing snack. Adding another layer of richness and complexity is the inclusion of tahini, a sesame seed paste.

Its distinctive earthy notes harmonize beautifully with the sweetness, creating a balanced and intriguing flavor profile. The tahini also contributes to the cookies' moist and tender interior, ensuring each bite is a pure pleasure. These cookies are perfect to be enjoyed at any time of the day whether as a mid-afternoon treat alongside your favorite cup of tea or coffee, or to serve as a light and delectable dessert after a meal.

Their subtle sweetness and satisfying texture make them a versatile option for any occasion. One thing to note about these delicate creations is their texture when freshly baked. They require a bit of patience, as they are quite soft and fragile when warm.

Allowing them to cool completely is essential for them to firm up and achieve their ideal consistency. This cooling period allows the flavors to meld together even further, enhancing the overall taste experience. The result is a cookie that is perfectly balanced in sweetness, rich in flavor, and delightfully tender – a treat that you can feel good about enjoying.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a shallow oven tray with baking paper.
    2.
    Add the ground flax to a small bowl along with the water and stir well to combine. Set aside to gel whilst you prepare the remaining ingredients.
    3.
    Add the almond butter, tahini, erythritol, ground almonds, baking soda, lemon juice, almond extract and salt to a mixing bowl. Beat together well to combine.
    4.
    Add the flax mixture and stir until well combined and you have a cookie dough consistency.
    5.
    Divide the dough into 12 even portions and roll into balls. Arrange across the lined oven tray and press each ball into a cookie shape roughly 1/3 of an inch thick. Leave a 1/2 inch gap between each cookie.
    6.
    Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with the flaked almonds, pressing the almonds gently into the cookie dough.
    7.
    Transfer to the oven to bake for 12-15 minutes until firm and golden brown all over. Allow the cookies to cool completely before serving.
