Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 2 tbsp lemon zest
- pinch of kosher salt
- 2 egg whites (at room temperature)
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 4 tsp powdered coconut sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F and place a rack in the middle. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl stir almond flour, sugar, lemon zest, and salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl beat the egg whites with an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment at medium speed until soft peaks form. Stir in the lemon juice.
- With a wooden spoon fold in the almond flour mixture. At this point a thick sticky dough will form. Place the powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
- Scoop 1 heaping tablespoon of dough, drop into the powdered sugar and roll into a ball. Place on the lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Repeat to make 22 cookies.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until tops crack and bottoms have lightly browned. Let cool completely on the baking sheet before removing.
- Store tightly covered for several days or freeze for several weeks.
Notes
Perfect for making ahead of time and pulling out when you need them. You can freeze lemon cookies for a few weeks when sealed tightly and layered with parchment or wax paper. Defrost at room temperature for a few hours before serving.
