Jam Dot Cookies

Not only are these cookies delicious, but they are also good for you, and with only 77 calories each, they make for a great desert or snack anytime. They are fast and fun to make, and can be filled with your favorite jam or fruit spread

1 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
1 Cup Slivered Almonds, ground into a course meal
1 Cup Oats, ground into a course meal
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/4 Cup Grapeseed Oil
1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
1/4 Cup Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
1 tsp Vanilla
Your Favorite Jam or Fruit Spread(I really enjoy Cascadian Farms)

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray baking sheet w/ vegetable spray(PAM) and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, ground almonds, ground oats and cinnamon until thoroughly mixed.

In a separate bowl, combine the grapeseed oil, maple syrup, orange juice and vanilla. Combine wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix well. Let sit for ten minutes. Scoop 1 TBS of batter for each cookie, onto the prepared baking sheet. Using your pointer finger, make a well in the middle of the cookie. Fille the middle of the cookie with 1/2 tsp of fruit spread or jam and repeat the process for the remainder of the batter. Bake for 8-10 min, rotate your tray and bake an additional 8-10 min or until cookies are golden, and the filling is bubbly.
