• 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
• ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
• Jam (any flavour)

5. Make cookies - Use soup spoon to scoop out mounds of the cookie dough. Use slightly damp hands to shape the cookies how you want them and place them on a lined baking tray. Then use your finger to place a slight indent in the centre. Do not press all the way through.
