Lemon Oatmeal Cookies image

Our lemon tree is exploding with lemons! My recipe calls for fresh lemon rind and juice. If you use packaged lemon zest, you might want to add more than the 2 teaspoons. This cookie is light and crispy, not moist and chewey.

Time 25m

Yield 4 dozen cookies, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter (soft)
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons lemon rind
3/4 teaspoon lemon extract
3 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 cups oats
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Cream butter, shortening, sugar and eggs, mix well, beat in lemon zest, juice and extract.
  • Add flour, baking powder and salt, stir in oatmeal.
  • Chill dough 2-3 hrs (I keep dough for up to 4-5 days and make a few at a time).
  • Roll dough in walnut sized pieces, toss generously in powdered sugar; place 1-2" apart on ungreased cookie sheet, flatten slightly with the bottom of a juice jar.
  • Bake at 350 about 12-15 minute or until browned around the edges. Make sure to let them brown enough so they will be crispy.
  • Cool and serve.

I love the idea of lemon oatmeal cookies, but these didn't quite live up to my expectations. The lemon flavor was a bit muted, and the cookies were a bit dry.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I've baked these cookies several times now, and they're always a hit with my family and friends. The lemon flavor is perfectly balanced, and the oats add a nice texture.

These lemon oatmeal cookies were a delightful treat! The combination of lemon and oats created a unique and flavorful cookie that was perfectly chewy and sweet.
