Categories     Breakfast

Time 45m

Yield 30 cookies, 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup rolled oats
1 cup almonds
1 cup spelt flour
1/2 cup corn or 1/2 cup safflower oil
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup brown rice syrup
1 cup jam, of your choice

Steps:

  • Combine the rolled oats and almonds in a blender or food processor and process until this is the consistency of flour.
  • Pour into a large bowl and add the spelt flour.
  • Combine the oil with the maple syrup and brown rice syrup. Mix well.
  • Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix well.
  • Make 1-inch sized balls with your hands [you can use some oil on your palms, if needed] and press flat onto a lightly oiled cookie sheet.
  • Make an indentation with your thumb into the center of each cookie.
  • Fill each cookie with a teaspoonful of jam.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • NOTE: Tiptree makes the best jams - with the purest ingredients -- the raspberry seedless is awesome, the morello cherry jam, all of them really - amazon.com has them online.
  • Also, you could substitute any nut flour or gluten-free flour [pamela's pancake and baking mix is widely accepted as one of the best - also available on amazon.com].

MRS. FIELDS THUMBPRINT JAM COOKIES



Mrs. Fields Thumbprint Jam Cookies image

I got this recipe out of a really old Mrs. Field's Cookie Cookbook. These are by far my most requested cookie and are really quite easy to make. I couldn't find an exact match on Zaar so I decided to put my own recipe up here. I love them an I hope you do too. I can't even kind of remember how many cookies this makes so I might be way off.

Time 1h5m

Yield 36 cookies, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup salted butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup fruit jam (I've used raspberry, strawberry, apricot and mango. Any kind works as long as it's relatively smooth)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300*F.
  • In a medium bowl combine flour and baking powder. Mix well with a wire whisk. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl with an electric mixer cream butter and sugar. Add egg and vanilla and beat on medium until smooth. Add the flour mixture and blend at low speed until thoroughly combined. Dough will be firm.
  • Scoop tablespoonfuls of dough, roll into 1-inch-diameter balls and place on ungreased baking sheets, 1 inch apart. With the small end of a melon baler, scoop out the center of the dough balls. Do not scoop all the way through the cookie. (I've found that a melon baller doesn't give as generous of a jam cup as I would like so I tend to form larger shallower holes in my cookies by hand) Place ½ teaspoons of jam in the center of each dough ball. Place scooped-out dough back into mixing bowl to use to form more cookies.
  • Bake 22-24 minutes or until light golden brown. Transfer to a cool, flat surface.

Tips:

  • Use the best quality ingredients you can find. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help the cookies to be chewy and tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming tough.
  • Mix in the dry ingredients gradually. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming dry and crumbly.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before frosting. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Use your favorite jam or jelly to fill the cookies. You can also get creative and use different flavored jams or jellies, such as lemon curd or Nutella.

Conclusion:

These thumbprint jam cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy, with a sweet and tangy filling. The cookies can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months. When you are ready to serve, simply thaw the cookies at room temperature or warm them up in the microwave for a few seconds.
