Sophie and I had a blast talking about the science, history, and nutritional benefits of sesame. And I get to make one of my favorite desserts, halvah!

SESAME-OATMEAL CRISPS
A good cup of tea needs a strong biscuit, and my green tea custard is no different. These cookies have a touch of ginger and a handful of black sesame seeds to ring in the Chinese New Year. Mix the dough with your hands, save a spoon.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup Oats
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
- 1/3 cup Millet Flour
- 1/3 cup Black Sesame Seeds
- 3/4 teaspoon Ground Ginger
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 3 ounces Coconut Oil
BUSINESS
Heat your oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl mix all ingredients with your hands. Squeeze and massage the mixture until there are no visible clumps.
Press the crust into a 9-inch pie dish (or some equivalently sized glass baking dish). Bake the cookies for 15-20 minutes or until just brown around the edges. Remove dish from the oven and cut it into slices while it's still hot. Let it cool before removing from dish.
