Ingredients

• Fresh, dry sesame seeds
• 1 Tbsp Sesame oil
• 4 Tbsp Homemade Tahini
• 2 Whole eggs
• 2 Tbsp Water
• A pinch of salt
• 1/2 Cup (120g) Tahini
• 5 Eggs
• 1 Tbsp Olive oil
• 1 Tsp Baking powder
• 1/2 Tsp Salt
• 1-2 Tbsp Maple syrup
• Mixed nuts for topping

Instructions

1. Make the Homemade Tahini: Toast fresh, dry sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat until they’re golden and aromatic. Let them cool before transferring to a food processor. Blend the seeds until they become a thick paste, and then gradually add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil until smooth.
2. Prepare the Quick Flatbread: In a bowl, mix 4 tablespoons of your homemade tahini, 2 whole eggs, a pinch of salt, and 2 tablespoons of water. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
3. Cook the Flatbreads: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a ladle of the batter into the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden. Flip it over and cook the other side until fully cooked. Repeat this process with the remaining batter.
4. Make the Fluffy Protein Loaf: Preheat your oven to 180°C (355°F). In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup of tahini, 5 eggs, olive oil, baking powder, salt, and maple syrup if you like a hint of sweetness. Mix well until everything is combined.
5. Bake the Loaf: Pour the mixture into a prepared loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Top with mixed nuts for an extra crunch. Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
6. Cool and Serve: Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for a bit before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice once it’s cool, and enjoy your high-protein sesame bread!
