Tahini oat cookies with carrot

These cookies are a mix of pretty much all of my favourite things. The result? My favourite cookies (chocker)! A bit more savoury than sweet, perfect to always have in the freezer for spontaneous fika-moments, or when you come home after a long day and want something to munch meanwhile you think about what to cook for your evening meal. In other words - these are really must-have-cookies!

Tahini oat cookies with carrot

Makes 12

Ingredients

4 dl rolled oats

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 Tbsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground cardamom

1/2 tsp pure vanilla powder

14 fresh dates, pitted 

1 dl light tahini

2 Tbsp oat mylk or water

1 medium carrot

1 pinch flakey salt

How to

Pre heat the oven to 175°C. Mix oats, baking powder, spices and vanilla in a food processor. Add the dates and mix until crumbly. Add tahini and oat mylk, pulse until the dough starts fo get together. Add the carrot and mix until you get a dough. Form in to 12 balls, put on a baking tray and press lightly with a fork to get the look. Bake in the oven for 15-17 minutes, until they get crispy underneath and lightly golden on top. You want them to have a crispy outside and and chewy inside! Store in an airtight container, in the fridge or freezer.
