Description
These toasted sesame almond cookies are a delightful treat with crisp edges and a chewy middle, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour (super fine)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons black sesame seeds (toasted)
- 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 1/2 tablespoons melted coconut oil (not hot)
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients. Add almond flour, toasted sesame seeds, brown sugar, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl and whisk to combine, breaking any lumps in the brown sugar.
- Finish dough. Add the water and coconut oil, then mix with a rubber spatula until fully combined and a soft, cohesive dough forms.
- Make balls. Divide the dough into 1-tablespoon portions, gently roll each into a ball, then lightly flatten. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
- Bake. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges look golden in color. Place baking sheet on a wire rack and cool completely.
Notes
- Freshly baked cookies have crisp edges with a chewy middle. The crispness tends to fade away after the first day and becomes soft and chewy, but it is just as tasty.
- Refer to notes on how to toast the sesame seeds.
