Method
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.
Step 2
Beat together the softened butter, sugar and vanilla until pale and fluffy.
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.
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.
Step 5
Add approximately ½ tsp of jam to the centre of each biscuit or until the hollow is filled.
Step 6
Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until very lightly coloured. Leave to cool before moving to a wire rack.
