Description

Want a virtuous alternative to chocolate hazelnut spread? Tahini-tella is made with dark chocolate and tahini and makes morning toast into a no-guilt treat! I love to spread this on sourdough toast, then top with sliced banana and a sprinkling of cinnamon and sesame seeds.

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • ⅔ cup tahini
  • 3 ½ tablespoons honey
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Place chocolate and olive oil in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently
  2. scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching

  4. about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  5. Combine tahini
  6. honey
  7. and cinnamon in a bowl. Stir in melted chocolate mixture until smooth and well combined. Refrigerate spread until set and spreadable
  8. about 15 minutes.
