1/2 cup almonds
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/4 cups whole grain pastry flour
1/3 cup granulated
cane juice (sugar)
1/8 tsp. sea salt
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp. almond extract
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 tbsp. organic butter, softened
Fruit preserves (any flavor)
Preheat oven to 350º. In a food processor, pulse almonds
until minced.
Combine whole grain pastry flour, baking powder, granulated cane
juice, sea salt and almonds. In a separate bowl beat eggs
and combine with almond and vanilla extracts.
Mix wet ingredients with dry ingredients. Add softened butter
and knead until wet dough forms. Roll ½ the dough
out until it is ¼ inch thick. Use a heart shaped cookie
cutter to shape the cookies. Repeat with remaining dough. Place
hearts onto a lightly oiled cookie sheet or cookie sheet with wax
paper. Lightly press your finger into the center of each cookie. Drop
a dollop of jam onto each cookie. Bake 15-18 minutes.
