How to Make Thumbprint Cookies

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix the melted vegan butter, almond milk, sugar, baking powder, vanilla, and salt together. Add the flour and mix in until a thick cookie dough forms.
  • Use your hands to roll about two tablespoons of dough per cookie into a ball and place it onto the baking sheet. Repeat, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie dough ball, until all of the cookie dough has been used. You may need to use two baking sheets or do this in two batches.
  • Use your thumb or the base of a tablespoon measuring spoon to create a divot in the center of each cookie. Add about 1 ½ teaspoon of jam into the center of each cookie dough ball. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool.
  • Option to sprinkle the top of the cookies while they are still warm with sugar before serving.
