Gluten-Free Thumbprint Cookies

Cookies are my usual favorite to bring along to holiday parties. I have created Gluten-Free Thumbprint Cookies for my latest cookbook, Celebrations, but I am sharing the full recipe and a step-by-step video with you here! They are filled with a sweet jam and make lovely gifts and a fun activity to do with your kids! You can make these cookies egg-free if you omit the optional egg wash.

I will continue releasing a new video every Wednesday so be sure to subscribe to my Youtube Channel here so you can be notified when I add something new! If you've missed any in the past couple of weeks you can find them on Youtube or on the blog!

Ingredients:

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the beater attachment, or using an electric handheld mixer, beat together the ghee, honey, and vanilla on medium-high speed for 1 minute, or until smooth and fluffy. With the mixer on low speed, add the almond and coconut flours and mix just until incorporated.
  3. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls, using about 2 Tbsp of dough for each. Place on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them evenly apart. If desired make the egg wash by beating together the egg and water. Roll the dough balls in the egg wash and then in the shredded coconut.
  4. Moisten your thumb with water and gently press into the center of each ball, making an indentation about 1/2 inch wide and 1 inch deep. Spoon about 1 tsp jam into each indentation.
  5. Bake the cookies for 15 to 17 minutes, until golden. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
