Ingredients

Servings
  • 120 ml olive oil
  • 60 grams sugar regular or caster (superfine)
  • 1 lemon juice and zest
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 180 grams flour plain (all-purpose)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 175 deg C (350 F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine the olive oil and sugar in a medium bowl and mix well.
  3. Add the lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla and mix again.
  4. Combine the flour and baking soda and gradually add it to the wet ingredients. 
  5. Stir until combined and no flour is visible. Cover the bowl, and place in the fridge overnight - or for half an hour
  6. Use an ice cream scoop to scoop out balls of cookie dough and place them on a lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 12-13 mins. Remove and cool the cookies on a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Don't Overmix:
  • Mix the dough until the ingredients are combined to avoid tough cookies.
  • Chill the Dough:
  • This step is crucial for preventing the spread and enhancing flavour.
  • Uniform Size:
  • Use a cookie scoop or weigh dough balls for even baking.
  • Watch Baking Time:
  • When removed from the oven, cookies should be slightly underbaked; they'll continue to set as they cool.
