Ingredients
- 150 grams Blanched Almond Flour
- 120 grams Tahini (sesame paste)
- 100 grams Erythritol sweetener
- 50 grams Unsalted Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea Salt
Directions
Step 1
Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2
In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the unsalted butter until completely liquid.
Step 3
Add the erythritol sweetener to the melted butter, stirring constantly until the sweetener is dissolved and the mixture is slightly thickened. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the tahini, vanilla extract, and sea salt until fully combined.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour with the tahini mixture. Mix thoroughly until a dough-like consistency forms.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press it down evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm. For best results, let it chill for a few hours or overnight.
Step 8
Once firm, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the halva out of the pan. Cut into small squares or preferred shapes.
Step 9
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
