- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 juice and zest of lemon

- Add the dry ingredients to large bowl of wet ingredients, stirring until all of the flour is mixed in.
- Scoop your cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, using an ice cream scoop. Flatten each cookie dough ball to about 1/4" thick, or leave them rounded for more of a "muffin top" shape.

- Allow the cookies to cool, then enjoy!
Notes
You can substitute 10 drops of lemon essential oil if you don't have a lemon on hand. Just be sure it's a high quality oil that's recommended for ingesting!
