Ingredients
Method
- Prepare your flax egg by whisking together the ground flaxseed and water, and let it sit for 10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine melted coconut oil and granulated cane sugar, whisking until it resembles wet sand. Add the flax egg, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
- Sift flour, baking powder, and sea salt into the wet mixture and fold together until no dry streaks remain.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets.
- Scoop about one tablespoon of dough, roll it into a ball, then coat it in powdered sugar.
- Place the balls on the baking sheet with space between them and bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Use fresh zest for best flavor. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
