    Method

    1. Step 1

      Pre-heat the oven to 180°C (fan 160°C/gas mark 4). Line 2 large baking trays with non-stick baking parchment.

    2. Step 2

      Beat together the softened butter, sugar and vanilla until pale and fluffy.

    3. Step 3

      Add in the beaten egg and mix until combined before adding the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix together until a soft dough is formed.

    4. Step 4

      Roll the dough into small balls (approx. 3cm diameter) and place onto the baking trays, leaving a gap for the biscuits to spread in the oven. Gently press the centre of each biscuit with your thumb to create a hollow in the centre.

    5. Step 5

      Add approximately ½ tsp of jam to the centre of each biscuit or until the hollow is filled.

    6. Step 6

      Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until very lightly coloured. Leave to cool before moving to a wire rack.

    Love these. Easy to make and taste delicious. I didn't have caster sugar so used granulated and they turned out really well.
