Healthy Lemon Poppy Seed Cookies
Lemon Poppy Seed Cookies! Made flourless with nut butter and only five ingredients, these bursting with citrus goodies are sure to brighten any day!
Servings: 12 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup cashew butter or nut butter of choice
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients until thoroughly combined.
- Using a medium ice cream spoon, place a heaping scoop of batter on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until you have 12 cookies.
- Bake 10-12 minutes until the edges of the cookies are lightly browned.
- Remove from the oven and grate lemon peels over the top of the cookies. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet 10 minutes prior to carefully transferring them to a wire baking rack to cool. They are fragile is you remove them too soon, but the longer they sit the harder they get!
- Refrigerate to maintain shape and freshness up to 12 days.
