These tahini brownie bites are easy to make, delicious, and totally guilt-free!
Serves: 24 bites
Ingredients
3 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon ground chia seeds
1 cup old fashioned oats (gluten-free if needed)
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
⅓ cup tahini
⅓ cup maple syrup
⅓ cup tablespoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2-3 tablespoons almond milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a mini muffin tin.
In a small bowl, stir together the water and chia seed meal. Set aside for at least 5 minutes.
Add the oats and salt into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the oats reach a flour-like consistency, but there can still be some bigger pieces.
Add the remaining ingredients and process until smooth, 2-3 minutes. Add 2-3 tablespoons of almond milk if the batter seems thick.
Divide the batter evenly between the mini muffin cups, about a heaping teaspoon.
Bake for 8-9 minutes, then let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
You can substitute the chia seed egg for a flax egg if you prefer. A real egg would probably work as well!
