- Preheat oven to temperature on recipe card (at the end of the post).
- Combine all dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients and mix using an electric or stand mixer until the batter is well combined.
- Roll the dough into 12 cookie balls and place onto a well-greased cookie sheet. Space each cookie ball approximately 2” apart.
- Press the cookies down in the middle using the back of a spoon or teaspoon to create an indent large enough to later hold 1 tsp preserves.
⭐ TIP: You can smooth out the cracks in the cookies at this step if you would prefer.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until the tops of the cookies start to brown slightly.
- Remove from oven and immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- Cool for 10 minutes, then add 1 tsp preserves to each cookie indent.
⭐ TIP: You can use your sugar-free/keto-friendly preserves, jelly, or jam of choice in this recipe. If you’re going for the traditional PB&J flavor, the brand I use, Polaner, has a sugar-free grape jam or you can try this Good Good Grape Jelly.
- Leave on wire rack until cookies cool fully.

You call out oat fiber but it’s not in the recipe, only 2 tb. coconut flour. How much oat fiber do you use? Is oat flour the same thing?
Hi Yvette! My apologies – the oat fiber inclusion was an oversight. You will only need coconut flour for this recipe. Enjoy!
