Easy Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookies

These cookies are gluten free, require no special flour, and taste great. Two of my grandsons are allergic to gluten, so last Christmas I found this recipe, modified it and the boys loved it.

1 c peanut butter
1 egg
1/2 c sugar
1 t baking powder
1 t vanilla
grape jam

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In medium mixer bowl, combine egg, sugar and vanilla. Add peanut butter and baking powder. Mix until blended.

Cover cookie sheet with parchment paper. Roll dough into balls, flatten slightly and make a thumb print in center of each cookie. Fill it with grape jam. Bake at 350 degrees for about 12 minutes. Makes 2 1/2 to 3 dozen cookies.
