Ingredients

2 cups - Almond Flour
½ cup - Oat Flour
¼ tsp - Baking Soda
¼ tsp - Salt
¼ cup - Coconut Oil
¼ cup - pure maple syrup
2 teaspoons - Vanilla Extract
½ tsp - Almond Extract
¼ cup - Strawberry Superfood Jam - Smash Foods, or jam or jelly of choice

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Sift the almond flour, oat flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium mixing bowl. Stir in the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla and almond extracts until a thick dough forms.
Roll tablespoon sized portions into balls. Use your thumb or the rounded back of a teaspoon to gently press two indents in the center of each cookie dough ball to make heart shapes. Spoon about a teaspoon of jam into each heart thumbprint, filling each indent to the brim.
Carefully transfer onto the prepared cookie sheet, placing about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 13 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!
