Prep and cook time: 30 minutes Makes about 18 cookies
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup almonds
1 cup brown rice flour
½ cup melted coconut oil
½ cup maple syrup or raw agave nectar
fruit-sweetened jam of your choice (Sorrell Ridge is a good, sugar-free brand)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine oats and almonds in a blender or food processor and blend until they have the consistency of flour. Add to a large bowl with flour. In a small bowl, mix together the oil and maple syrup. Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix well. Shape into 1-inch balls with your hands and press flat onto a cookie sheet. Make an indentation with your thumb into the center of each cookie. Fill each cookie with a teaspoon of jam. Bake for 15 minutes. Cool and enjoy!
