Crispy Roasted Tahini Butter Beans
Description
Crispy Roasted Tahini Butter Beans use canned butter beans coated in a mixture of tahini, olive oil, and seasonings including garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and salt. The tahini imparts a creamy, nutty richness that complements the subtly sweet butter beans. Tossing the beans gently in the sauce ensures they are evenly coated.
The beans are spread in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and baked at 400°F for about 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. This roasting process dries out the beans’ surface, creating a crisp texture while the interior remains tender. Once cooled, the beans become even crispier and can be enjoyed as a snack or a flavorful addition to meals.
Leftover beans keep well in the refrigerator for up to one week and are best reheated in the oven to revive their crispness. They can also be stored at room temperature for short periods when taken on the go.
Ingredients
- 1 oz can butter beans drained, 453 g
- ¼ cup tahini 60 g
- 1 Tbsp olive oil 15 mL
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Drain butter beans and pat as dry as possible with paper towels.
- Mix: In a large bowl, stir together ¼ cup tahini, 1 Tbsp olive oil, and ½ tsp each salt, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika. Gently fold in the butter beans.
- Bake: Arrange beans on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for about 30 minutes, flipping the beans once during cooking, until golden brown and crispy (they'll continue to crisp up as they cool).
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Reheat roasted tahini butter beans in the oven to restore their crisp texture.
- They can be kept at room temperature for a day when packed for travel or snacking out.
