Description

These delicious lemon glazed cookies are made with gluten-free ingredients and are perfect for any occasion!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups 1:1 gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon extract
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and line a baking sheet with a baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour with the baking soda and baking powder and set aside.
  3. In a separate medium bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar.
  4. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing the batter after you add each egg. Then add in the Greek yogurt and lemon juice and mix.
  5. Slowly add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, until the flour is fully incorporated into the dough.
  6. Working in batches, drop the dough into 1-inch diameter circles and lightly press down on each one.
  7. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until lightly golden.
  8. Once the cookies are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them sit on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
  9. Mix up the glaze by combining all of the glaze ingredients in a medium bowl until smooth and thick like vanilla frosting.
  10. Once the cookies have cooled, generously glaze each one and top with sprinkles. Make sure to add the sprinkles while the icing is wet so they stick better.
  11. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • If the glaze looks too thin, add more powdered sugar. If it looks too thick, add a little more milk.
