Sesame Cookies

Baking cookies is not very time consuming, and having experimented with several cookie recipes over the past few months, the preference would still be to have a healthy snack, like this one. In light of the clean up before the New Year starts, the tahini in the fridge show a best-before date of January 2009, so a recipe calling for tahini was in order!

Sesame Cookies

To make this you would need:
1 cup wholewheat flour
1 cup sesame seeds
1 cup rolled oats (not instant)
1/2 cup chopped currants
1/2 cup chopped raisins
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
1/2 cup sunflower seeds (preferably chopped - but for this one, they were dumped in whole!)
1 teaspoon mixed spice
1/2 cup tahini
1 cup soy milk
1/2 cup honey

dry stuff

(note : in this instance, the nuts nor the dried fruits were not chopped - it just made it easier hehe!)

Mix dry ingredients well together in one bowl. Mix wet ingredients in another. Pour wet over dry ingredients, mix until combined, drop by heaping tablespoonsfuls on a cookie sheet lined with baking paper and cook for 15-18 minutes at 180C.

Easy, no?
