Ingredients

Cookie Dough

• ½ cup of all-purpose flour

• ½ cup of almond flour

• ¼ cup of tapioca flour

• ¼ cup of cane sugar

• 1/8 teaspoon of sea salt

• ¼ cup of coconut oil

• 2 teaspoons of lemon zest

• 2 teaspoons of lemon juice

• 1 tablespoon of milk (or dairy-free milk alternative)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cane sugar, lemon zest, salt, and flour. Then, stir in coconut oil, lemon juice, and milk. Combine until all ingredients form a dough.

3. Place your mixing bowl in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes. This will help you roll out the dough easier!

4. Then, roll out your dough and use cookie-cutters to cut out as many cookies as possible. Place cookies on the parchment paper and bake for 10 minutes.
