Lemon Blueberry Cookies
Sweet and Tangy, these flourless Lemon Blueberry Cookies are an indulgent treat to be enjoyed anytime, any season!
This spring, we have been checking out quite a few hiking trails and paved walkways. Our current favorite is the trail around the lake at Mulberry Park. Usually, our dogs keep us company here.
Something else that keeps us company on our hikes and hikes is snacks. Sometimes those snacks are the Dubai Chocolate stuffed Muffin Tops, and sometimes, these gluten-free, totally flourless, Lemon Blueberry Cookies with cashew butter and a white chocolate drizzle on top.
These cookies were a hit with my daughter!
She usually isn’t one for fruity cookies, but she said she was pleasantly surprised.
I used dried blueberries, lemon zest, and homemade cashew butter – but you can use store-bought cashew butter or even almond butter for these.
These are not very different from the ever-popular, flourless, 4-ingredient, nut butter cookies making their rounds on the interwebs, but they sure are a tasty twist on them.

With white chocolate on top!!! I DIED. I love the lemon blueberry pairing (especially around this time of the year!), and I’m betting that throwing white chocolate into the mix just takes things to a whole new level of deliciousness. These sound so great, Shashi!
I would have never thought to pair blueberry and lemon together, but I bet that tastes amazing!
I’ve recently been eating a lot of different nut butters, including cashew and sunflower seed. I can always go for some blueberries… and combining these into a cookie sounds amazing! Not sure what it is about blueberries, but I remember even as a kind getting those variety packs of instant oatmeal with fruit in it… the blueberries and cream ones were always my favorite.
Love the combo of lemon and blueberries! And pretty soon we’ll be getting local ones in the supermarket — no need to hike to where they’re grown to pick them. 🙂 Fun read, great recipe — thanks.
Lemons and blueberries really are a match made in heaven. Now I want to go on a hike. 🙂
Lemon and bluberry pair so perfectly together!
I’ll definitely whip up a batch of these bad boys to enjoy as a post-workout treat. Perfect crunch to go with a pw smoothie.
Awesmazing recipe my friend!
Breakfast Shashi. That’s where I would be having these! Why? Because I can imagine them going so well with the mug of green tea and slice of lemon that I enjoy as my first beverage of the day. Before my coffee. Lol
