Gluten free thumbprint cookies are one of those simple, timeless treats that never disappoint. Soft, buttery, and lightly crisp on the edges, these cookies are shaped with a little indentation, the “thumbprint”, and filled with your favourite jam. Raspberry is my go-to, but you can use whatever you love or whatever you have on hand.

They’re the perfect mix of melt-in-your-mouth cookie and sweet, fruity centre, they also bake up beautifully with gluten free flour. These cookies look adorable on holiday cookie trays, pack well for gifting, and are easy enough for a quick afternoon bake. You can make them festive by switching up the jam colours or using curds or even chocolate in the centre.

Simple, classic, and endlessly customizable, these gluten free thumbprint cookies are always a hit.
