I love lemons. They can brighten up the flavors in any recipe, both sweet and savory. From ice creams to salads, lemons can definitely shine. Lemon is truly the star in these Flourless Lemon Poppy Seed Cookies. They are bursting with lemony flavors that do not disappoint! I also highly recommend making my lemon blueberry cookies!
It took me 2 tries to get this one right, but I am so glad I did! These healthy cookies are vegan, gluten free AND grain free! I wanted to eat the batter straight from the food processor. Okay, well maybe I did eat some of it haha!
You can easily make your own cashew butter as well. I show you how in this video tutorial.
