Combine maple syrup, tahini, sesame oil, cornstarch and vanilla in the blender and blend until smooth.


Stir tahini mixture into oat mixture.


Spread sesame seeds onto a large plate.


Using a tablespoon, scoop cookie dough onto the plate and roll into balls, coating with sesame seeds.


Arrange dough on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.


Bake until cookies are golden brown on the bottom and puffed, 10 to 12 minutes.


Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack and let cool completely.
