Gluten-Free Walnut-Tahini Spread

Do you have a jar of tahini in your cupboard that you bought to make homemade hummus but you’re left with a jar that’s still 3/4 way full and have no idea what to do with it?
Here’s 5 ways to use tahini (hummus not being one of them!). This is a savoury edition, I’ll be uploading a sweet edition soon ;).
These recipes are healthy, vegan, fully plant-based and gluten-free. They’re also delicious and super easy to make:D.

Tahini is an epic ingredient whether you’re using it for a savory recipe or a sweet one. I am a big fan of using it in dressings for my daily bowls at Charley St, on top of banana bread or toast, or even over oatmeal in the morning! It also makes a great addition to baked goods, from cookies to bars to energy bites. It is made from purely ground up sesame seeds (if you get a high quality one, make sure that is the only ingredient!).
Today I’m using Seed + Mill tahini to make these delicious tahini cookies, which are completely gluten-free and easily made vegan if you sub the grass-fed butter for coconut oil. And with your leftover tahini, drizzle some over the top or eat it by the spoonful! Check out the recipe below, or on my blog!
Recipe: https://danchurchill.com/tahini-spiced-cookies/.
Ingredients:
3/4 Grass Fed Butter, room temperature.
1/2 Cup Coconut Sugar.
1 Cup Tahini (I use Seed + Mill!).
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract.
1/4 Cup Coconut Milk.
2 cups Coconut flour.
Pinch of Salt.
1/2 tsp Cinnamon.
1/2 tsp Nutmeg.
Method:
Preheat oven to 200 Degrees C..
Using a mix master with beater attachment or electric whisk beat butter and sugar until combined.
With the machines still mixing away add the tahini, coconut milk and vanilla extract. Once combined continue with the coconut flour, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg..
Mix until dough comes together like a legend �� Then roll into golf ball size portions and place on a lined baking tray, slightly flatten with the palm of your hand and then finish by imprinting with the back of the fork. Repeat with remaining dough..
Sprinkle with a little extra cinnamon before baking for 12-17 minutes or until slightly golden, transfer to a cooling rack, then liberally drizzle over a little extra tahini for extra nuttiness ��.

This is the perfect dressing for those days when you want something heartier without the oil. It is easy and quick to make, creamy, and the garlic and ginger give it that wonderful kick..
The ingredients are:
1 cup water.
1 cup sesame tahini.
1″ piece of ginger.
3 cloves garlic.
1/2 teaspoon salt.
The juice of one lemon.
1 tablespoon tamari.
1/2 teaspoon salt.
Tip: When putting ingredients in the blender, please make sure to add the water first, otherwise the tahini would jam the blades, making it very difficult to blend..
