Vegan Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies

Vegan Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies

These vegan fingerprint cookies are soft, slightly chewy, nutty, and sweet, made with almond flour, some maple flavoring, and raspberry jam (or jam of your choice). Even better, these holiday cookies require only 8 simple, healthy ingredients and are gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, fat-free, and optionally sugar-free!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups (120 g) almond flour
  • 4 tablespoons (32 g) tapioca flour
  • 3 tablespoons (40 g) optional granulated sugar (I used Erythritol)
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder

  • 1/4 cup (64 g) cashew butter or almond oil or tahini (liquid, not solid)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 tablespoons of cold water
  • 4 teaspoons maple syrup
  • Jam (I used homemade raspberries)

Instructions

  • You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.
  • Add all the dry ingredients (almond flour, tapioca flour, sugar, and baking powder) to a bowl and mix with a spoon.
  • Add cashew butter, vanilla extract, and cold water. Mix first with a spoon, then roll the dough into balls with your hands.
  • Note: Hazelnut/seed oil should be runny, not hard. If yours is solid, I recommend preheating it in a bain-marie or microwave.
  • Then add the maple syrup and mix again. If the dough is a little sticky at first, let it rest for a few minutes.

 

  • Form the dough into 14 balls and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or use a silicone mat.
  • Using your thumb or 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon, make an indentation on each ball (see video for visual instructions).
  • Fill each indentation with 1/2 teaspoon of jam. Transfer the cookie sheet to the refrigerator and chill the cookies for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight).
  • Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C) and bake the cookies for about 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Enjoy!



notes

Almond flour: If you wish, use ground sunflower seeds instead of almonds.
Tapioca flour: You can most likely use any other starch.
