Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
Place chopped pecans in a shallow bowl or small dish, set aside.
Combine all ingredients except jam in a bowl and mix until a dough forms.
Form dough into balls then roll in pecans. Place on baking sheet and gently press down in the center using your thumb to create an indent. Pinch together any large cracks around the outside.
Spoon jam into the center of each cookie.
Bake for 11-13 minutes until edges start to brown just slightly. Remove cookies from the oven and let rest on the baking sheet until cooled. The thumbprints will be soft at first but crisp up as they cool.
