I LOVE living in Newfoundland! I moved here in the summer of 2019 and have fallen in love with the people, the food, and the culture. As a baking enthusiast I have had endless conversations about favorite recipes with my new friends and co-workers and customers. I am always eager to try baking new things, especially when someone tells me what their FAVORITE treat is.

At the Farmers Market this past season, feedback from my customers week over week was that they would like to have a Newfoundland favorite — homemade Jam Jams! I, had never had a Jam Jam, and so begun my Jam Jam making adventures!

After many revisions to flour amounts, bake time, and cookie size, below is the tried and true recipe I have been using for my Jam Jams at the farmers market, in the local cafe, and in select stores.

These soft, chewy and sweet molasses cookies are always a crowd-pleaser! If you try this recipe please comment below or follow me on Facebook and let me know how they turned out for you!
