Ingredients

For the Cookies

  • 1 3/4 cups Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 2 tsp Lemon Zest
  • 1/2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract

For the Glaze

  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp Lemon Zest

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk together the gluten free 1-to-1 baking flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for about 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add the egg, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract and beat until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and roll into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are just set and the bottoms are barely golden. The centers will still look soft. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack set over parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest until smooth. Spoon the glaze over each cooled cookie, letting it drip down the sides. Let the glaze set for about 15 minutes before serving.
