Chocolate Tahini Spread image

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.

Time 25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

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

Steps:

  • Place chocolate and olive oil in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Combine tahini, honey, and cinnamon in a bowl. Stir in melted chocolate mixture until smooth and well combined. Refrigerate spread until set and spreadable, about 15 minutes.
