Notes

  • You can possibly make these with just tahini. Add more tahini instead of oil. The flavor of tahini will be quite strong then.
  • To make these gluten-free: Mix of equal amounts (1/4 cup) of oat flour, almond flour, rice flour and 2 tbsp cornstarch or other starch. Add all of the flour and mix in. Let it chill for 5 mins. If the mixture is wet, add 1 -2 tbsp more oat flour and mix in.
