Delicate jam-filled cookies
Are you in still the mood for cookies? Cookies have always been one of my favorite treats. Probably because they are quick and easy to make, so versatile, and they make the perfect snack .
These Gluten-Free Coconut Jam Cookies are not overly sweet, they taste amazing, and they’re just perfect with a steaming cup of coffee or tea.
I usually make them with raspberry jam, but you can use any type of jam you like (strawberry, apricot,…).
Dietary requirements: vegan (dairy-free), gluten-free, and soy-free.

How to make it

Melt coconut butter in a medium pot over low heat. Stir until smooth.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together finely ground almond flour, white rice flour, shredded coconut, and potato starch.
Step 4
Add melted coconut butter, agave syrup, and rice or almond milk and mix briefly with a hand mixer until just combined. The dough might still look crumbly so use your hands and mix until the dough begins to stick together.
Step 5
Use a mini donut silicone mould to shape the cookies. Or if you don’t have it, shape cookie dough into a small balls and use your thumb to gently make a small indent in the center of each dough ball.
Step 6
Place the cookies on the baking sheet and bake for 16-18 minutes or until light golden brown.
Step 7
Remove cookies from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Let the cookies cool completely before adding jam (cookies will harden as they cool).
