Tahini Honey Butter

December 26, 2025 Amanda Plott

If peanut butter and honey had a cultured, slightly nutty cousin who wore a beret and always brought snacks to the party, it would be tahini honey butter. This spread takes the silky, sesame-forward richness of tahini, softens it with butter, and brightens it with honey — creating something that’s creamy, slightly savory, and perfectly sweet. It’s comfort food with a grown-up twist, and it plays well with everything from toast to roast vegetables. Welcome to the simplest upgrade your pantry has seen all year…

Maple Tahini Dressing

August 23, 2025 Amanda Plott

Who says healthy can’t be delicious? If you’re on the hunt for a dressing that’s creamy, dreamy, and just a little bit nutty with a sweet twist, Maple Tahini Dressing is about to become your new best friend. Whether you’re drizzling it over salads, roasted veggies, grain bowls, or even using it as a dip, this versatile concoction brings a flavor punch with none of the guilt.

Why Maple Tahini?

Tahini, made from ground sesame seeds, is a nutrient powerhouse packed with healthy fats, protein, and minerals like calcium and magnesium. It’s savory, creamy, and has a slightly earthy vibe that’s hard to beat. Now, add pure maple syrup into the mix—a natural, antioxidant-rich sweetener—and you’ve got a match made in dressing heaven. The maple syrup balances the bitterness of the tahini with a gentle, floral sweetness that elevates every bite…

Sticky Tahini Sweet Potatoes (With Chili Crunch)

August 3, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you’ve never considered tahini for your potatoes, prepare to have your culinary world rocked. Sticky Tahini Sweet Potatoes are here to flip the script on your typical side dish game—offering crispy, tender potatoes cloaked in a luscious, nutty tahini glaze that’s both addictive and guilt-free. Yes, you heard right: health-conscious meets downright crave-worthy.

Why Tahini? Why Sweet Potatoes?

Tahini, the creamy sesame seed paste, is not just for hummus. It’s packed with healthy fats, protein, and calcium, making it a superstar ingredient when you want flavor and nourishment. Potatoes get a bad rap sometimes, but they’re actually a great source of vitamins C and B6, potassium, and fiber — especially when you keep the skins on (hello, extra nutrients and fiber!).

Combining the two is a match made in flavor heaven. The tahini adds a rich, slightly earthy creaminess with a hint of nuttiness that coats the sweet potatoes perfectly, turning every bite into a sticky, savory sensation…
