Jam Thumbprints Recipe (+)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350Â°.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or use silpats.
Whisk flour, baking powder and salt together in a bowl.
In a mixer bowl, blend butter and sugar until fluffy.
Add lemon zest and beat in the egg and vanilla just until combined.
Slowly beat in the dry ingredients, mixing just until incorporated.
Scoop the dough into 1 inch balls with a cookie or ice cream scoop then each ball roll in sugar.
Place approximately 2 inches apart on a baking sheet.
Press a thumbprint into the middle of each. Don't push too deep or jelly will seep through the bottom.
Fill each print with approximately 3/4 teaspoon of jelly or jam.
Bake until the edges are golden brown, 15-18 minutes.
May rotate pans halfway through cooking time for even color.
Cool cookies slightly on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in a seeled container for up to 5 days.
Freezes well.

Rhubarb Jam

A sweet, flavorful jam that makes a great spread or topping on many foods, such as bread, biscuits, crackers, toast, French toast, pancakes, and waffles.

Carrot Jam

Like a marmalade, this sweet jam uses carrots, providing extra dimensions of texture and flavor, for a fun topping.

Huckleberry Jam

A light, sweet fruit spread with a wild, mildly tart flavor.

Since gooseberries are rich in pectin, make this jam the old-fashioned way, without commercial pectin. If the jam will be used soon, or frozen, there is no need to bother with canning it. Jam will keep for weeks in the refrigerator. Makes 3 to 4, 1/2 pint jars.
