FLOURLESS THUMBPRINT BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a food processor, add the oats and pulse until a coarse meal forms. Don't process it into a flour, some big flakes are good.
• In a large bowl, stir together the processed oats, mashed banana, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt until combined. The mixture will be very wet and dense.
• With a retractable ice cream scoop or a spoon, scoop the dough into 10 mounds. (The cookies do not need to be spaced far apart on the baking sheet as they don't spread out.) Press your thumb into the centre of each cookie to create a well. Fill each well with 1 heaping teaspoon of jam.
• Bake cookies at 350°F (180°C) for 11 to 13 minutes, until the cookies are slightly firm on the outside, but soft and doughy in the middle. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack for 10 minutes.
• If desired, pipe on your favourite nut butter. These cookies also taste great with a pat of coconut oil on top!

GIANT'S THUMBPRINT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a baking sheet.
• In a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Add the vanilla scrapings and salt and mix until incorporated. Add the flour and mix at low speed until incorporated. Using your hands, roll the dough into golf-ball-sized balls and arrange them 2 inches apart on the cookie sheet, flattening them out a bit as you go. Using your thumb, press the top of each cookie to make a shallow well. Roll your thumb back and forth to widen the well. Using a small spoon, fill the wells with jam. Bake until very lightly browned around the edges, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool on the pan. Store in an airtight container.
