Almond Torte Cookies

1 cup rolled oats
1 cup almonds
1 cup spelt or brown rice flour 
½ cup canola or safflower oil
½ cup agave nectar
Fruit-sweetened jam of your choice
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine oats and almonds in a blender or food processor and blend until they have the consistency of flour. Add to a large bowl with spelt flour. In a small bowl mix together the oil and agave nectar. Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix well.  Make 1-inch balls with your hands and press flat onto a cookie sheet.  Make an indentation with your thumb into the center of each cookie.  Fill each cookie with a teaspoon of jam.  Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Cool and enjoy!

Christa!

Lauren brought these to Easter brunch and they were AMAZING! I came to your site to find the recipe. They give you all the satisfaction of a yummy cookie without that gross post-sugar feeling.

Thanks!
