Thumbprint cookies are one of my favorite kind of cookies. They have a simple list of ingredients, come up together quickly and you can fill them out with any jam you like! The base is made with combination of almond flour which gives an amazing nutty flavor, and the tapioca flour which adds lightness and helps to brown the cookies!
