About Sesame cookies

Sesame cookies are delightful treats made primarily from sesame seeds, flour, sugar, and butter, often flavored with vanilla or honey for added sweetness. Originating in Middle Eastern and Asian cuisines, these cookies celebrate the nutty, earthy flavor of roasted sesame seeds, which give them their distinct taste and texture. Rich in nutrients, sesame seeds are packed with healthy fats, protein, fiber, and essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron. However, the cookies themselves can be calorie-dense due to added sugars and fats, which should be consumed in moderation. Some variations use whole-grain flour or less sugar for a slightly healthier twist. Perfect as a snack or dessert, sesame cookies offer a crunchy bite with both cultural significance and nutritional value, combining tradition with indulgence.
