What should Vegan Lemon Cookies taste like? We think they should be soft, fluffy, decadent, sweet (but not too sweet!), and tart (but not too tart!). Our lemon cookie recipe fits all of those points. They’re pretty much the best cookies we’ve ever made, and I’d say they are totally sublime. And trust me, we’ve got some really good cookie recipes, so that says a lot!

After you devour these cookies you’re probably going to love lemons so much that you’re going to need to get one of these lemon t-shirts: Powered By Lemon or Vegans Are Cuter Lemon.

Preparing Soft & Delicious Vegan Lemon Cookies Is Easy

We made these cookies so easily. Here is what you’ll need to make them:

Mix these dry ingredients together into a medium-large bowl: flour, baking soda, and salt.

In a separate large bowl cream the butter and sugar together. Add the vanilla, non-dairy milk, zest from 2 lemons, and juice from 1 lemon (juice from the other lemon is used in the frosting).

In a small bowl whisk the aquafaba for 30-60 seconds until it’s frothy, and then add it to the wet mix. Mix well and then gradually stir the flour mix into the wet mix.

Spoon the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, silicone mat, or cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for ~9 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them cool on their baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

What About The Frosting?

These cookies are good without the frosting, but the frosting does take them to the next level. It’s a super simple frosting that just needs 1 cup of organic confectioner’s sugar and juice from 1 lemon. Simply stir them together until you get a frosting consistency. The frosting gives these cookies a sweet tangy kick, and it’s so delicious.
