Tehina Cookies are a delicious treat rooted in Middle Eastern cuisine, combining nutty tahini (ground sesame paste) with classic cookie ingredients like flour, sugar, and butter. The addition of tahini lends a rich, earthy flavor and a slightly crumbly texture that makes the cookies unique. Tahini is a nutritional highlight of these cookies, as it provides healthy fats, protein, calcium, and antioxidants. However, Tehina Cookies are typically sweetened with sugar and often contain butter or oil, making them calorie-dense and best enjoyed in moderation. They may be adapted to include whole wheat flour, reduce sugar, or add mix-ins like sesame seeds, dark chocolate, or nuts for extra nutrients. These cookies are a delightful fusion of indulgence and cultural heritage, offering a flavorful nod to their Middle Eastern origins.
