Ingredients
1½ cups almond meal
- ¼ cups flour (all purpose, OR gluten free (such as rice flour), or any comparable substitute)
- 2 TB ground flax seeds
- ¼ tsp + 1/8 tsp fine grain sea salt
- 1 tsp + 1/8 tsp baking powder
- ½ cup JOI almond nutbase
- ¼ cup + 3 TB maple syrup
- ½ tsp almond extract
- 1/3 cup shredded coconut, for rolling
- 5 - 6 TB raspberry, apricot or other jam of choice
Directions
Preheat oven to 350F and prepare a large baking sheet with oil, a silpat mat or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients (almond meal, flour, ground flax, salt, and baking powder), breaking up any clumps with your fingers.
- In a smaller bowl, mix together the JOI, maple syrup, and almond extract until well combined. Add wet mixture to dry mixture and stir until combined.

- Roll balls in shredded coconut. Place balls of dough about 1.5-2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
- With your thumb, press into the middle of the ball and shape a small well with your fingers.
- Add about 1 tsp of jam into each well.
- Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes, watching closely after 9 minutes.
