If there is no such mode, the sesame base will need to be turned over manually after 7-8 minutes. Make sure the sesame hearts do not dry out.

Sesame hearts with nuts and dried fruits - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor. Gluten-free flour blends should also work, but the texture might be slightly different. You might need to adjust the amount of liquid depending on the flour you use.
Absolutely! You can reduce the sugar by up to 25% without significantly affecting the texture. You can also substitute some of the sugar with a natural sweetener like stevia or erythritol, but be mindful of the different sweetness levels.
Store the sesame hearts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. To maintain their freshness, avoid storing them in a humid environment. You can also refrigerate them for up to a week.
Definitely! Feel free to experiment with your favorite combinations. Walnuts, almonds, pecans, or pistachios can replace cashews. Similarly, you can use cranberries, figs, or prunes instead of raisins and dried apricots. Just ensure the fruits are pitted.
If you don't have a heart-shaped mold, you can use any cookie cutter shape you like, or simply cut the dough into squares or rectangles with a knife. The taste will be the same!
Yes, you can freeze the unbaked sesame heart dough. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then in a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Let it thaw in the refrigerator before baking. Baked sesame hearts can also be frozen, but the fruit topping might become slightly softer upon thawing. Freeze in a single layer before transferring to a freezer-safe container to prevent sticking. Thaw at room temperature.
You can try using an egg replacement like flax eggs (1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons of water, let sit for 5 minutes) or applesauce (1/4 cup per egg) as a substitute. The texture might be slightly different, so experiment with smaller batches first.
Yes, adding a pinch of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom to the dough can enhance the flavor. Start with a small amount (about 1/4 teaspoon) and adjust to your preference.
