Nut-Free Sunflower Butter and Jam Sandwich Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup sunflower butter
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup fruit jam (your choice)

Instructions

1. 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sunflower butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy.
3. 3. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, and stir until fully incorporated.
4. 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
5. 5. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Press each ball down slightly and use your thumb to create a small indent in the center of each cookie.
6. 6. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
7. 7. Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a teaspoon of fruit jam on the bottom of half of the cookies and top them with the other half to create sandwich cookies.
