Ingredients
Wet
- ½ cup room temperature butter dairy or non-dairy
- 1 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1-2 tablespoons lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- optional: 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
Dry
- 2 ¼ cups oat flour spooned and leveled
- 1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
- ⅛ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup frozen raspberries broken up into small pieces
Instructions
- Add the softened butter and sugar to a mixing bowl or bowl of a stand mixer.
- Cream together for 1 minute.
- Add in the remaining wet ingredients and cream together until well combined, about 30 seconds. Leave out the lemon extract for now.
- Add in the dry ingredients aside from the raspberries and beat together until a dough forms. Taste and add more lemon zest or the lemon extract if desired.
- Fold in the raspberries, mixing just until combined so the raspberries don't completely bleed into the dough.
- Use a 2 tablespoon scoop and scoop onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill for 1 hour.
- When you have about 15-20 minutes left, preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit.
- Once the dough is done chilling, bake for 14-17 minutes or until the cookies have spread and the edges are just golden brown.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for about 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- These cookies are intended to be very thick, soft and pillowy, but if you prefer them a bit crispier, simply bake for longer.
Notes
If you want the cookies to spread more, use 1/4 teaspoon baking soda instead of 1/8 teaspoon.
Since there is only one, you can likely sub with a vegan replacement. I suggest apple sauce (3 1/2 tablespoons), a flax egg or a store bought egg replacer.
