Nutty raspberry jam thumbprint cookies

 

 

I've seen a bunch of recipes for this kind of thing like this one, and this one and this one so I finally decided to give them a shot. They tasted like toast with PB& J and I'm super happy with the way the photo's turned out.

Ingredients:

recipe adapted from Green Kitchen Stories

1/4 c. millet

1/2 c. whole wheat flour

1/4 c. nut flour

1 1/2 c. oat flour

1 1/2 tbsp corn starch

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 c. + 2 tbsp peanut butter

1/2 c. honey or syrup

1 egg yolk/ or flax egg

1/2 c. crushed almonds

1/2 c. jam

Mix the flours, baking powder and cornstarch together. In a separate bowl beat the peanut butter, egg, and honey. Combine the two mixtures. Scoop out 20 small portions of dough and roll them into balls. Dips the balls in the milk and then roll them in the chopped walnuts. Press a deep ( but not too wide) hole in the middle with your thumb and use a spoon to fill a teensy bit of jam ( make sure it's not spilling out.) Be careful  not to put too much jam in or else they'll look like erupted volcanoes instead of cute little buttons. Bake at 350 F for around 10 minutes.

Enjoy!!!
