Peanut Butter and Jam Cookies

Makes 20 cookies

1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
½ cup nut butter (peanut, almond, sunflower, etc.)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ cup agave syrup
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup rolled oats (certified gluten-free if necessary)
¼ cup jam, your favorite flavor

Heat oven to 350 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add chickpeas, nut butter, vanilla, agave syrup, baking powder, and rolled oats to a food processor. Blend until beans are pureed.

With wet hands, roll the dough into one-inch balls and place on the baking sheet. Press your thumb into the balls and spoon jam into the indentation. The space should fit about 1 teaspoon of jam.

Bake for 18-20 minutes until cookies are firm.
