My kids love lemons. They put it in their water and use it to give their fresh-cut apples a bit of zest. One day they asked me to make Gluten-Free Lemon Cookies and after a few trials we came up with this yummy gluten-free recipe. They are so delicious and refreshing when you want something a little sweet.

Why Gluten-Free Lemon Cookies?

These lemon cookies are great when you want a light, sweet cookie that’s refreshing and easy to make. We like to enjoy these gluten-free cookies with a cup of tea or milk. They’re great for springtime holiday cookies too – like Easter or spring break – but we enjoy them during the summer too when we’ve got fresh lemons coming in.>

These are great as gluten-free holiday cookiesor gluten-free Christmas cookies too.>

How to Make Gluten-Free Lemon Cookies

This cookie dough recipe is a cinch to make. It’s a basic dough recipe but I prefer to use raw honey over sugar. You can definitely use granulated sugar – use about the same amount as you would the honey so 1/2 cup of sugar. Add more as needed.>

You can either use my gluten-free flour recipe or buy your own. If you’re not gluten-free, you could even make it with regular flour. This recipe is just so versatile.>

Now you can use just the lemon juice and zest alone. But I always have lemon vitality essential oil on hand (vitality means it can be used for cooking) and it’s so much more flavorful with it and I like it better than a lemon extract. Just remember if you decide to use an extract you’ll need to adjust it – likely about 1/2 tsp in this recipe.>
