We’re taking tahini beyond the hummus tub and into the cookie jar. The sesame paste adds savory, nutty richness to these cookies, which get a second dose of sesame from a coating of the seeds. Be sure to use raw seeds; already roasted seeds can turn bitter during baking. Toasted almond flour gives the cookies a soft, chewy crumb. In an airtight container, these cookies will keep for up to three days.

Yum!
These are very good. I only had hulled sesame seeds the third time I made them. Still great! Thank you.

They grow on you
Didn’t like these cookies on day one, freshly baked and cooled. They had a bitter edge, and the texture wasn’t appealing to my family or me. They actually got better each day. By day 3, they were disappearing quickly!
