Salted Tahini Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies (Coconut Flour): this gluten free chocolate chip cookies recipe is chewy, salty ‘n sweet, with soft centers & crispy edges! The best coconut flour chocolate chip cookies made with tahini butter!

Did I tell you that these salted tahini paleo chocolate chip cookies were the very first cookies Erik and I baked in our new home? ๐Ÿ™‚ I mean, it’s kind of a big deal. ๐Ÿ˜‰ (Like, even bigger than this recipe being #3 in the 1st Annual Beaming Baker Vegan Cookie Countdown!)

Before we started baking, I told Erik, “Hey, listen, we’re not gonna bake too much today. We need to take it slow, ease into things, ya know? Like, we just moved in; we need to warm up to our new kitchen.”

To which Erik vigorously nodded and agreed.

And 12 recipes/15 batches of paleo chocolate chip cookies, paleo chocolate orange muffins and sea salt chocolate paleo granola bars later that day…we both looked at each other and said, “We’re finally home now.”

I mean, there’s nothing quite like a signature BB bake-a-thon to feel like we’re really, truly at home. Do you have a ritual/tradition that you need to complete before feeling like you’re truly at home after you move into a new place?

I can’t wait to hear all about it. ๐Ÿ™‚ In the meantime, I can assure you that this recipe most definitely handed me my gluten free biscuits on a platter. If you know what I mean. Okay, you might not know what I mean.

Salted Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies – Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies made with coconut flour!

These salted tahini paleo chocolate chip cookies were truly…something else to make. If you’ve been with me for a while, you know that I’ve been experimenting with tahini and coconut flour in my paleo gluten free chocolate chip cookies. They make for a fantastic combo of chewy, crispy and just, tasty, cookies. Case in point: my Big Sesame Tahini Cookies.

Problem is: when you mess with the amount of one of the butters, you get a ridiculously different result. So we “messed” around with the tahini and almond butter amounts until we found the sweet spot. Satisfying, nutty tahini flavor without any of the would-be bitterness that comes from not using tahini properly. (You know what I’m talking about!)

Bonus: these salted tahini paleo chocolate chip cookies are made with coconut flour! Just like y’all been asking for for ages! Excited? Let’s talk about it. ๐Ÿ™‚

How do these Salted Tahini Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies Taste?

These salted tahini paleo chocolate chip cookies are the best coconut flour chocolate chip cookies…like EVER. Here are my exact notes from my recipe testing trials for these gluten free cookies:

  • Perfect combo of salty & sweet.
  • Chewy overall aka “caramel chew” as described by Erik ๐Ÿ˜‰
  • Tastes like Christmas. Something a lil’ special; something a lil’ extra
  • Soft centers, crispy edges
  • Tahini flavor pairs so well w/ chocolate & sea salt

Storing Your Salted Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies with Coconut Flour

As with all gluten free chocolate chip cookies made with coconut flour, you’ll have to be a bit more vigilant with storing your cookies. (Or, just eat them all the first day.) Make sure to store your tahini chocolate chip cookies in a container that’s kept out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources.

Here’s the breakdown on how the cookies will progress throughout each day:

  • Day 1: Best this day. Perfectly chewy, lightly moist, with crispy edges
  • Day 2: A bit drier (I’m looking at you, Coconut Flour!)  But still good.
  • Day 3: Moist, very chewy. Last day to enjoy at their peak, IMO.

Ingredients 

Salted Tahini Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies

Add-ins

Topping

  • Coarse sea salt

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350ยฐF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, add all ingredients except paleo chocolate and sea salt. Using a rubber spatula, stir and fold until thoroughly mixed.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop and drop cookie dough onto baking sheet, evenly spaced apart. Press chocolate into the tops of cookies. Using the palm of your hand, lightly flatten cookies for thicker cookies or flatten more for thinner, wider cookies. If cracks form, press back together. Sprinkle with sea salt.
  • Bake for 12-16 minutes. Mine took 14 minutes. Place cookie sheet on a cooling rack, and allow cookies to cool directly on the sheet for 15-20 minutesโ€”do not remove from sheet for at least 15 minutes, as cookies are fragile. Optionally, sprinkle with more sea salt, if desired. Then, using a spatula, gently transfer cookies directly onto the cooling rack to cool for about 30 minutes, or until completely cooled. Enjoy!

    Thanks for this! Made them at the last second. I was out of coconut flour so I subbed Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 GF Baking Powder. I added 1 Tablespoon of cold brew. I halved the chocolate chips to 1/4 to not over power. I followed all the cooling instructions which is hard in this house. After devouring the first one, my husband said, “They’re gooood.” All the vowels were extended, so I’m calling it a win. Thank you!

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      LOL I know, waiting for them to cool is the hardest part for us, too! ๐Ÿ˜‚ I am so pleased that the hubs enjoyed them, and thanks for sharing the subs you used. Here’s to more baking fun! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Still really good! I’m making these again for our outdoor church service tomorrow. I went with the 13 minutes bake time and my cookies were “really good but kinda hard” per my almost 10 year old cookie-tester. I agree! Super yummy but definitely underbaking is better for me. I baked for 10 minutes. Thank you again, Demeter โค๏ธ
