Lemon-Hint Hamantaschen yield: 17 cookies
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups GF oat flour 1 cup almond flour 1 tsp baking powder 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup pure maple syrup Zest of 1 lemon 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Filling: Strawberry jam
Directions:
Heat oven to 350 F. To a mixing bowl add the dry Ingredients and mix. Next, add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix.

Place the dough on top and cover with another piece of parchment paper, same size as the one underneath. (It should be approximately the size of your baking sheet) Take a rolling pin and roll the dough to about 1/5 of an inch. Take a round cookie cutter and cut circles. Take a spoonful of the filling and put it in the center of each circle. Then pinch together one side, and then fold in the other 2 corners to create a triangle. You can close it on top all the way, or you can leave it open at the top- it is up to you. Bake for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown in the edges. Let the cookies cool down completely, then serve.
