Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and erythritol until smooth and fluffy.
Add the egg yolk, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour and salt.
Gradually add the almond flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, form 1-inch dough balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Gently press your thumb into the center of each dough ball to create an indentation.
Fill each indentation with about 1/2 teaspoon of sugar-free jam.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookie edges turn golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
