Black Sesame Date Cookies (oil-free!)

Oil-free Black sesame cookies are chewy, nutty and delicious. They need 1 Bowl, some almond flour, creamy tahini and sticky-sweet dates for amazing flavors and textures. No oil, no butter, no whipping butter and sugar! The black sesame is a beautiful addition to cookies, adding a great nutty flavor and crunch. Gluten-free Grain-free

Black sesame is trending, so I decided to use it in these fabulous cookies. I use my almond flour cookie dough that you all know I love, because you don’t need any extra bowls, any whipping up of butter and sugar and all of that. No extra equipment, and they come together in about 15 minutes.

One of the common requests I got for that almond flour cookie dough was to make it without any oil or coconut oil, so today we are using tahini instead. You can use regular tahini or black sesame tahini. If you don’t have tahini, you can also use some smooth, creamy almond butter instead.

We make this very simple dough, add in some crushed black sesame seeds along with dates, cinnamon, vanilla, and tahini. Then, you bake it up into these chewy and delicious cookies. They’re crisp on the edges, chewy in the middle, and because of the tahini, they’re also incredibly moist. 

Black sesame is nutty and looks pretty and tastes delicious. It is also a powerhouse of nutrients, like calcium, magnesium, iron, antioxidants, and protein. They are a great addition to these cookies. There’s just a fabulous combination of flavors and textures in these black sesame cookies!
