Rustic cookies with jam: the crunchiness without butter or eggs that always wins everyone over, simple and quick, perfect at any time of the day, even dipped in milk. They remind me a lot of the soft dipping cookies without eggs with chocolate
It’s a very simple dough with few ingredients, and you’ll be surprised how it can transform into such crispy and irresistible rustic cookies. Their taste and aroma take me back in time to when grandma baked giant trays of big cookies for breakfast like the dipping cookies with yogurt
These are not the usual shortcrust breakfast cookies, their uniqueness lies in the dough being egg-free and butter-free. The crunchiness is guaranteed, and the jam creates a soft, creamy core that goes perfectly with the rustic shortcrust
However, like all traditional family recipes, there are different variations, but some remain dear to your heart, like the milk-dipping cookies or the lemon cookies with cracks. Still, I recommend trying this rustic version, and I’m sure they will win you over too.

Steps
HOW TO PREPARE RUSTIC COOKIES WITH JAM
PREPARE THE DOUGH: Put all the liquid ingredients in a bowl and mix; add the flour, baking powder, ammonia, and sugar a little at a time, and also add your chosen flavoring. Mix well and continue to work the dough on the work surface.
SHAPE THE COOKIES: Divide the dough into two equal parts, roll it out with a rolling pin, but it should not be too thin. Add the jam, leave the edges clean, cover everything with the other dough, and close the edges well. With a sharp knife, cut strips, and then cut them again to form small rectangles. Coat each cookie in brown sugar and place them on a baking tray covered with parchment paper. Bake the cookies at 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 20 minutes, but adjust according to your oven. Once baked, take them out and let them cool before enjoying. They are even better the next day.
