Morning Tea in new Cafe in Kyneton. Piper StreeT Food Store. Lovely coffee and I enjoyed a Tahini biscuit, made in house .
I thought it was a bit like an Anzac but a bit more substantial and probably no butter. Could also be made gluten free. Also no nuts, so good for school lunches. How healthy is that!
Ingredients , in order of use.
Set oven at 160o C
120 g of Tahini, mix jar well so oil is incorporated. For a thinner crisper biscuit, increase to 150g.
2 generous Tablespoons of Golden Syrup, increase to 3 T for a crisper biscuit.
125 g brown sugar
3 Tablespoons of water
1 teaspoon of Carb Soda
50 g coconut
150g mixture of sesame seeds and sunflower seeds.
160 g rolled Oats
Method
Combine Tahini, Golden Syrup and brown sugar in TMX bowl and mix on speed 5 until all comes to form a soft paste. Scrape down bowl and mix again speed 5 / 10 seconds
Add water and Carb Soda, mix on speed 5/ 10 seconds.
Add coconut and seed, TURBO twice
Scrape down bowl. TURBO once.
Tip mixture into a large bowl and add oats.
Fold oats into mixture, It will be very stiff.
Use a small ice cream scoop to make balls the size of a walnut.
Place on a lined tray and press firmly with wet fingers.
Bake 20 minutes at 160 oC. Turning trays after 10 minutes.
Leave on trays for 10 minutes to set up and remove to wire rack to cool
If you like your biscuits crunchy on the outside, after 10 turn them over and pop back in oven until they have dried out, 5 to 10 minutes.
Makes 24.

AB - I have just made these, very nice, a timely recipe as I had some out of date Tahini in the fridge, thanks Chookie. I can't stop eating them.
Jeninwa - if the raw mixture is anything to go buy these will be delicious.
Katj - Very yum mixture, very yum straight from the oven. I will try another when they have cooled. I managed to get 30 from the mixture.

OOOOOPS. Don't know what I did Brenda. Thanks.

These sound different for a change.
-
Everyone who has had them seems to like them. They didn't go soft in the biscuit tin but stayed crisp.
-
These sound delicious. I've just added tahini to my shopping list
-
Might just have to add these to my ever growing list of things to make! Will be good for school lunch boxes. I have some tahini and only use it for a dip. They look great.
-
Any idea how many calories in them Chookie :-))

Glad members like them. I will have to make another lot as they have all gone.
Judy , no idea how many calories.
-
Damn it Chookie I can't stop eating them......I'll have to give them away.
-
AB, try and keep a couple. I think they are even nicer after a couple of days. ;D
-
These are in the oven now, if the raw mixture is anything to go buy these will be delicious. :)
-
I'm so glad someone else tries raw mixtures. ;D

You mean some people don't 😱

Sometimes it's the best part.
-
Have to agree. I often have my share raw. :D

I just took a batch of these out of the oven. Very yum mixture, very yum straight from
the oven. I will try another when they have cooled. I managed to get 30 from the mixture.

Katj, 30 is good. Mine were probably too big.

Any idea how many calories in them Chookie :-))
Just did a quick calculation as I was curious myself. The entire biscuit mix is 2976 calories or 12452 kJ.
Chookie made 24 so 124 cals or 519 kJ per bikkie - Katj made 30 so 99 cals or 415 kJ per bikkie.
The thing that attracts me to this recipe is that it's all good fats and no animal products. :D
-
Thanks Michele, you're a gem.
-
Used used the smallest I cream scoop, flattened off, and got 36 bickies.
Love them Chookie ,thank you X

Thanks Michele. You are fantastic.

Made tahini today for a Lebanese 7spice beef recipe. This will find a use for the leftovers.
-
Theresa, I have only made Tahini once. Like the idea but found it wasn't worth the effort as I can buy it fairly cheaply. What do you think about making it. .? I used about $3 worth in the biscuits I made. That is 24 large ones. The one I bought at the Cafe was $4 . That means my 24 were worth $96. That is rediculous.
-
Gee Chookie I have given away a fortune in cookies, would that make them Fortune Cookies?☺️
-
Wow Chookie, glad I'm not a cookie lover I've never looked at them in shops. I'm going to give these a go next week and see if I can trick my anzac loving, healthy food hating DS ;D
-
Gee Chookie I have given away a fortune in cookies, would that make them Fortune Cookies?☺️
AB, definitely.
Wonder, I increased the tahini and golden syrup in the next lot. Look just like Anzacs.
-
I only tried making tahini once and couldn't get it smooth enough. I bought it on special today for $4.19 for a 425gm jar at Coles.
That will last me for at least 4 months.
-
DH made these today! Yum :) they looked just like Chookie's photo. Thanks for another winner Chookie!
-
I had bag of sesame seeds in the pantry but no tahini so the concept worked for me. I added extra olive oil to get the consistency I was after. I'm not sure how often I'll want it for a recipe so don't stock it generally. I'll need to top up my seeds now!
The biscuits were a lovely variation.
-
Good Thermesa, the home ground ones would be good in these. Glad you liked them.
-
I've got these in the oven now. I don't think I mixed the tahini through the oil enough so the mixture was extremely stiff. Just tasting the rw mixture there is no way my DS will eat them but hoping others will. My scoop is very small so I got 44 biscuits, so I will probably eat them as a small snack with my coffee. Lots of great ingredients so happy to eat one every now and then.
-
wonder, i added the extra golden syrup and tahini to the second lot. these were more anzacy than the first lot.
-
I wasn't going to admit to this, but I made these last weekend, forgot about them and my stupid oven burnt the lot (NB. The result was not because I forgot them ;D ;D)
-
Marina, I overcooked mine a little I think but they are still OK to eat. DS got up while I was out walking and thought they were anzacs, had one bite and it went straight in the bin :'( I think they taste quite nice.
-
Ha, kids can be difficult.
-
I'm really enjoying these. Mine are very crunchy and I think I had an excess of sesame seeds over sunflower seeds so they taste quite a bit like the sesame fingers. DH took a few to work today so will be interesting to see what he thinks, not sure if he knows they aren't anzacs, I didn't mention it this morning ;D
-
I made these with the last of the tahini in the fridge and they are really yummy (especially the raw dough) I don't have an icecream scoup, so I rolled teaspoon sized balls between my palms. It was a long and tedious process as the mixture was so sticky. Next time I might just press them into a slice tin and bake! I'm not sure what I did, but I ended up with about 60 biscuits. My biscuit jar was full last night, but it's not now........

ES, they look yummy. Mine were quite a lot bigger.
-
Hmm made these today.Didn't turnout like Chookie's or Sue's photo at all. :-\ I must have been too generous with the golden syrup as mine were dark and spread :'( They tasted good :)
-
I made these today. I got 30 using a medium ice cream scoop and they were just the right size. I took the trouble to use an egg ring to shape the circles on some of them to see if it really made any difference. Took longer to do but the ones I did shape kept the perfect circles. This is showing just 1 of the shaped ones.
Lovely biscuits Chookie, DH will be set for his return to work tomorrow. ;D

Julie, they look good. I’m often asked for this recipe.
