This creamy vegan tahini sauce recipe is easy to make and features fresh flavors from lemon and garlic. It’s a versatile and satisfying recipe, perfect for falafel or salads.
½ cup tahini, ¼ cup water, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 1 clove garlic, ½ teaspoon salt
Stir until everything is evenly combined. It takes a minute or two for the tahini to fully blend with the water.
Step 2: Serve
That’s it! Your tahini sauce is ready to serve right away. If you have time, let this sit for 10-30 minutes to help the flavors meld together for an even tastier sauce.
The sauce thickens as it sits, especially when in a fridge. You may want to thin it with extra water until you reach an ideal consistency for whatever other foods you’ll use it with.
