  • 1 cup hazelnuts
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of cardamom or coriander
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup agave syrup
  • 1/2 cup grapeseed oil
  • 1/3 cup fruit-sweetened jam

Put hazelnuts in Vita-Mix dry container or food processor. Buzz to a coarse flour, then pour into a mixing bowl. Buzz oats in the blender to make a flour, then add to the ground nuts. Add salt, spices, and pastry flour. Add agave syrup and oil. Mix well. Form walnut-size balls and place on an oiled cookie sheet. Press cookies with thumb, making a small print to fill with jam. Fill each thumbprint with a half-teaspoon of jam. Bake in 350 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool before removing from tray and sampling.
