Healthier Jam Drops (Thumbprint Cookies)

Healthier Jam Drops (Thumbprint Cookies)

Ingredients

  • 225g (2 sticks) coconut oil, softened
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature (~50-55g / 2oz)
  • 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup strawberry or raspberry jam, or any other flavour, mixed well to loosen

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line 2 trays with baking paper.
  2. Cream the coconut oil and sugar together until creamy. This should take about 1 1/2 minutes on medium speed.
  3. Add the vanilla, egg, and salt, then mix until incorporated.
  4. Gradually add the flour and mix until no white flour is visible. The mixture will be crumbly but should hold together when pressed.
  5. Form the cookies: Take a tablespoon of dough, roll into a ball, flatten it slightly, and make an indent in the center with your thumb.
  6. Fill each indent with a heaped 1/2 teaspoon of jam.
  7. Bake for 14 minutes or until the edges are light golden and the tops are pale golden. Rotate trays at the 10-minute mark for even baking.
  8. Cool on the tray before enjoying!
