Cookie Week: Peanut Butter & Jelly Cookies (Gluten Free)

I found this recipe on PSB.org and it is a flourless cookie, which is key in my home! Hers is the recipe for Flourless PB & J cookies
  Ingredients

• 1 cup natural peanut butter, smooth or crunchy
• 1 cup sugar or natural cane sugar
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/3 cup fruit jam or jelly

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Using a hand or stand mixer, mix the peanut butter, sugar, egg and vanilla on low speed until well combined.
3. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough 1 1/2-inches apart onto the baking sheet. If you don’t have a cookie scoop, drop the dough with a spoon.
4. Flatten the dough balls with the bottom of a glass until the dough is slightly taller than half an inch.
5. Make a slight indent 1/8-inch deep with a clean milk jug cap in the center of each cookie. (we drink almond milk in our home and that cap was too small so I used the lid to a bottle of vitamin C. You can be creative if you do not have the propper supplies :)
6. Spoon a teaspoon of jam inside of the indented center.
7. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until they are golden around the edges. Allow the cookies to rest on the counter for 2 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

These were a big hit with the family. One of my favorites for sure! Enjoy!
