Oatmeal cookies are absolutely delicious! They are the perfect snack to enjoy with a nice cup of coffee or tea. But, a good 3-ingredient oatmeal cookie is hard to come by. This 3-ingredient recipe is going to change that though.
With only 3 ingredients, these oatmeal cookies are chewy, sugary, and delightful. By using tahini, you get all the creaminess and richness that would come from butter and eggs. It is an all-in-one kind of ingredient.
These 3-ingredient oatmeal cookies are super easy to make. Toss everything in a bowl, scoop, flatten, and bake. Better yet, they are vegan-friendly! So, all your friends and family can enjoy a bite of these lovely cookies.
How To Make Scrumptious 3 Ingredient Oatmeal Cookies
Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix the oats, sugar, and salt in a bowl. It’s best to use your hands to mix at this step so that you can break up any lumps in the sugar. Brown sugar tends to get a bit lumpy, so you can also sieve it before combining as well.
Pour in the tahini and cold water, and stir until well combined. The oatmeal batter should stick together when formed into a ball. With a tablespoon, or ice cream scoop, spoon balls of dough onto the lined baking sheets. Using your hand or a glass cup, gently press down on the balls until they are about 2 inches wide.
Place the cookies into the oven and bake for 6 minutes. Turn the baking sheet around and bake for another 6 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown. They may look uncooked by the end of baking, but they continue to cook while resting.
Take them out of the oven and let the oatmeal cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a cooling tray to continue resting until they are fully cooled.
Enjoy with your favorite cup of coffee or tea!
