Cooking Tools You’ll Need

For this recipe, I keep things simple with just a few basic tools. I use a mixing bowl to bring the dough together and a rubber spatula to stir the ingredients without sticking. A tablespoon or small cookie scoop helps me measure even portions of dough, and I lightly oil my hands to roll the balls smoothly. I line a baking sheet with parchment paper so the cookies don’t stick, and of course, I need an oven preheated to 350°F (180°C). Finally, I let the cookies finish cooling on a wire rack before adding the jam.

Ingredients

1 cup almond flour

3 tbsp honey

2 tbsp almond milk

2–3 tbsp jam of your choice (for filling)

Instructions

I start by preheating the oven to 350°F (180°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, I add the almond flour, honey, and almond milk. I stir everything together with a rubber spatula until the dough comes together in one soft ball.

Using a tablespoon, I scoop some dough and roll it gently between my lightly oiled hands. I place each ball on the prepared baking sheet.

Once all the cookies are rolled, I press them down slightly with my fingertips to flatten. I make sure to leave a little space (about a thumb’s width) between each cookie.

I bake the cookies for 10–12 minutes, until they turn lightly golden and the tops feel set.

After baking, I let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes, then carefully move them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, I spoon a small amount of jam into the center of each cookie. And that’s it—simple, sweet, and ready to enjoy!

Tips & Variations

Try raspberry, apricot, or strawberry jam for different flavor twists.

For a dairy-free version, use almond or coconut milk.

If you like a little crunch, sprinkle some chopped nuts on top before baking.
