Ingredients for tahini honey oatmeal cookies

  • Tahini: you can also use almond butter, but tahini has a special taste!
  • Honey: raw honey is the best but you can also use maple syrup
  • Rolled oats: I used gluten-free to keep the recipe gluten-free
  • Chocolate chips: I used dark chocolate chips but semi-sweet will also work
  • Sliced almonds: walnuts will also work
  • Vanilla extract
  • Salt: I use sea salt flakes and love them for baking!

Instructions to make the oatmeal cookies

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium sized bowl, add all of your ingredients and combined everything until they’re all mixed well. All ingredients should start to stick together, if they don’t, add more tahini slowly.
  3. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out dough and form into a balls. It will be sticky so be patient!
  4. Place the cookies onto the lined baking sheet and press down with palm of your hand and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  5. Remove from the oven and let them cool before enjoying!

Gruyère Phyllo Bites with Pistachios, Almonds & Ho Gruyère Phyllo Bites with Pistachios, Almonds & Honey 🍯✨🎄

These festive Gruyère Phyllo Bites are the perfect holiday appetizer: crispy, buttery layers of baked phyllo filled with creamy melted Gruyère, a bright, sweet-savory mix of pistachios, roasted almonds and dried cranberries, topped with a drizzle of honey. They’re simple, elegant, and ideal for any holiday gathering.

Makes 12 pieces | Festive & perfect for holiday entertaining ✨

Ingredients:
6 sheets @athens_foods Phyllo Dough, thawed according to package instructions
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 ½ cups Gruyère cheese, shredded
3 tablespoons roasted pistachios, finely chopped
3 tablespoons roasted almonds, finely chopped
2 tablespoons dried cranberries
2–3 tablespoons honey, for drizzling
Pinch of flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions:
1. Thaw one roll of phyllo, following thawing instructions on package. Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin. Unroll phyllo sheets and cover with plastic wrap, then a slightly damp towel to prevent drying out. Lay one phyllo sheet on a clean surface and lightly brush with melted butter. Layer another sheet on top, brush with butter, and continue until you have 6 buttered sheets total.
2. Add the filling: Evenly sprinkle the entire layered sheet stack with Gruyère, pistachios, almonds, and dried cranberries, leaving about ½ inch border along one long edge.
3. Roll into a log: Starting from the long edge without the border, gently roll the phyllo into a tight log (like a jelly roll). Brush the outside of the log with a little more melted butter to seal.
4. Slice into spirals: Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the log into 12 equal pieces. Place each slice cut-side up into the greased muffin tin.
5. Bake: Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the spirals are deep golden brown and crispy.
6. Finish & serve: Drizzle warm spirals with honey. Add a pinch of flaky sea salt if desired.
