Lemon Blueberry Cookies (Vegan and Gluten Free)

Lemon Blueberry Cookies.  I have been making cookies like crazy lately.  That is how these blueberry lemon cookies came about.  I have also been combining the flavors of lemon and coconut together quiet often.

After I made my lemon coconut fudge the other day, a reader suggested I do a lemon blueberry cookie.  Genius idea!  I am so glad I did because these lemon blueberry vegan cookies are so good!

While these delicious cookies are not flourless, they are gluten free and vegan.  I seriously could not stop eating them!  I love the bursts of juicy blueberries I got with every bite.  Yum!  I hope you enjoy them.

Recipe Notes

If you like an extra burst of lemon flavor, you can also add 1 tsp of lemon zest to this recipe.

These should last a couple weeks in the fridge and much longer in the freezer. Enjoy!

  1. Just made them and I used eggs instead of flax eggs and I added shredded coconut because like you I love lemon and coconut! I also used organic dark chocolate chips instead of blueberries. They taste delicious! However, I found that my cookies were a tad lighter in color then your cookies? They baked for 15 minutes and bottom of the cookies were a golden brown and I was afraid to leave them in any longer:( any thoughts as to why they were lighter? ,
    1. I have no idea why they were lighter. My photo lighting may have been the reason mine looked darker? Just a guess. Glad you like them! :)
  2. OK, these are ridiculously good! I processed oatmeal to make the flour & then followed the recipe to the letter. They are SO GOOD. I will make these again and again. We took these to a birthday party potluck and received many compliments, and we walked away with an empty container. YUM!!!
  3. I turned these into scones. I was running low on maple syrup so I used the white sugar equivalent eggs instead of flax eggs half a cup of shredded coconut and a dollop of yogurt They turned out great.
  4. I made these last night and it seems they never were baked enough even though I left them in a lot longer than the 10 minutes. I probably even doubled the time and they still were doughy when I bit in. I used regular flour and coconut oil. I seem to be the only one with this problem, and I hate wasting ingredients. I'm pretty sure it's not my oven because I had just made vegan oatmeal raisin cookies and they were done in the time suggested. Any ideas?
    1. Sorry that happened to you. I think the problem is using the coconut oil vs the coconut butter. Coconut butter is very different and is almost the same consistency as regular butter. I think adding the coconut oil created much more liquid and made a wetter cookie. Can you try sticking in the fridge to help firm up so you don't waste it?
