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.
Scoop approximately 1 1/2 TB of dough and roll into balls. If dough is too sticky, place in the fridge for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
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.
Cool on sheet for 5 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack. enJOI!
