Gluten Free Jam Drops

The tastiest and easiest gluten free jam drops that you will ever make. Made with only 5 ingredients plus your favourite jam, these jam drops are sure to be a winner!

I was recently asked whether I had a gluten free version of jam drops that I could share.  I didn't, so I started to test out a recipe based on previous gluten free cookie and biscuit recipes that I had made.

The result was a winner so I am really happy to be adding these yummy treats to my biscuit and cookie recipe collection.

2. Make sure you don't eat the jam drops straight out of the oven as the jam will be super hot.
