Got a hankering for something a little bit sweet and a little bit tart? This gluten free lemon cookie recipe hits the spot and doesn’t require a million different ingredients!
Preheat oven to 350°. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Cream together butter and white sugar with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Add in brown sugar, vanilla extract, egg, lemon juice, and lemon zest mixing until well combined.
Add half of the flour to your bowl and mix. Add remaining flour plus all dry ingredients and mix again until well incorporated and a stiff dough has formed.
Scoop dough by the rounded tablespoon and flatten into a ball. Press dough into a shallow dish with white sugar to fully coat on both sides. Dough will form 18 cookies.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in preheated oven or until cookie bottoms become slightly brown. Allow to cool 5 minutes on the cookie sheet and then transfer to wire racks to finish cooling.
