I know I’ve yapped about this before, but I’m not the biggest fan of tahini, so I often find myself with jars of the stuff to finish off after only using tiny amounts of it in my favorite hummus…es. so I figured that giving a try to making my favorite bread with a twist would be a good way to “get rid” of a fair amount of it. and working out well, it most definitely did!
there’s no doubt it’d be awesome with other nut butters too and as usual, varying the quantity/sorts of flours is great to do.
