Made with wholemeal flour and tahini, this pineapple tahini slice was created in partnership with the Heart Foundation and has a wonderful nutty flavour. To make it, start by preheating the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, then grease a lamington pan and line it with baking paper. Next, place the tahini, oil, maple syrup and eggs in a large bowl and use a whisk to combine. Add the flour and almond meal and use a wooden spoon to combine. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Gently press pineapple pieces into the surface. Pop in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Brush the pineapple with extra maple syrup. Cut the slice into 12 pieces to serve. Sprinkle it with thyme leaves for an extra flavour hit.
