    Vegan Chocolate Chip Tahini Cookies

    Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

    Soft, earthy, sweet, and seriously delicious, these vegan chocolate chip tahini cookies will knock your socks off. In addition to being tasty, they are very easy to make and free of eggs, dairy and gluten. Trust me, you'll want to eat the dough straight from the bowl.

    I have been hearing about tahini in cookie dough but haven't tried it until now. I love how these cookies stick together, they don't fall apart even though there are no eggs or gluten. The olive oil makes them sort of savory. And the coconut sugar has a caramel sweetness without feeling overly sweet.

    Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookie Substitutions

    These cookies fit most people's diets - even the really picky eaters.

    • Almond Flour - if you can't have nuts, remove the almond flour from this recipe and just use gluten-free oat flour
    • Chocolate Chips - try raisins or dried cranberries
    • Oil Free - you can make these totally oil free by increasing the tahini and leaving out the olive oil all together.

    Variations

    The basic dough is so versatile.

    • Cinnamon - add some cinnamon or cardamom for a holiday cookie
    • Chocolate - these cookies can be double chocolate. Sub ¼ cup flour for cocoa powder
    • Fruity - instead of chocolate chips add dried cranberries, peanuts or raisins

    Storage

    Cookies are best enjoyed warm fresh out of the oven. Store any leftover cookies in an air-tight container.

    Top tip

    Make sure the tahini is runny. If you keep your tahini in the refrigerator, you will want to let it sit out on the counter for an hour or so. You don't want the tahini to be hard and the oil to be separated.

    You will want to use your hands to form the cookie dough.

Passion fruit water is yet another youth serum. As passion fruit is full of vitamin C, vitamin A, fiber, and minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and folate. These help your kidneys, nerves, muscles, and heart rhythm in big ways.
Your body uses Vitamins C to make blood vessels, cartilage, muscles, and collagen, which keeps skin looking young. It also helps your body heal, lowers inflammation, and protects your cells from damage. When you get enough vitamin C, it lowers your chances of getting colds and certain types of cancers. Vit A is great for eyes, immunity, and cells.
Note: did you know Passion Fruit is actually a berry? The biggest berry you’ll find.

    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not rea
    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not ready for change. And that’s perfectly ok. 
Making healthy choices isn’t hard work. You “have time” to choose an apple over a bag of chips. Let’s be real here; you just DON’T WANT TO.  And that alone is totally ok!!
Let’s not shame others choices or pressure another to change. If somebody is not happy where they’re at, or they are sick, or in pain, only then will they start examining their current routines and habits. Anger is a great catalysts for change. It often pushes people out if their comfort zones and into action. 
I often hear “I don’t have time to be healthy”. But what that really means is I don’t want to change or I’m afraid of change. And I’m not ready. Change is what they’re nervous about - not the amount of time it takes to chop up vegetables. 
Be kind to yourself…but be honest. 
Notice what you say you desire (weightloss or more energy) and then really examine your habits. Do you make the choices a “thin” person makes? Do you make the choices a rested high energy person needs to make? This might seem obvious but it’s actually not…so often we overlook this gap. We don’t see it and then we get mad at ourselves. Punish ourselves for “failing” over and over again. 
Once you start paying attention to your actions and habits and line them up with your goals - that’s when the magic happens. 
Yay or nay?
