Why does this recipe use tahini?

First, what is tahini!?

Tahini is made from roasted sesame seeds to make a creamy sauce.

When baking, tahini adds a deliciously rich, nutty and indulgent flavor in recipes.

I add it to this baked oatmeal for flavor but also because there are no eggs in this recipe.

It adds healthy fats while pairing perfectly with the chocolate and banana flavors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute tahini for a nut butter?

I suggest replacing the tahini with a creamy, natural peanut butter or almond butter. However, sunflower butter will also work well if that’s what you have on hand!

What other sweetener could I use?

If you don’t want to use maple syrup, I suggest using honey or a date syrup. However, you can also omit the maple syrup altogether and it will be less sweet.

Do I have to use almond milk?

Nope! You can use regular milk, cashew, oat or your preferred milk of choice.

How do I know it is done baking?

It is done baking when the edges are golden and has baked through. There should be no “jiggle” in the middle of the baked oats as well.

You can also stick a toothpick in the center to test. If it comes out clean (aside from melted chocolate), remove it from the oven!

How can I store this recipe for another day?

I have made this a day in advance and it still tastes great!

Reheat in the microwave for 30 to 60 seconds until it reaches a warm temperature to your liking.
