    These cookies are super soft and gooey and full of blueberry flavor.

    Ingredients

    Flour: Regular all-purpose flour. I always recommend King Arthur brand.

    Baking Powder: For leavening.

    Salt: Bor balance.

    Vegan Butter: My favorite vegan butter for baking are the Soy-Free Earth Balance Buttery Sticks.

    Sugar: Regular granulated sugar.

    Lemon Zest and Juice: All of the lemon flavor in these Vegan Blueberry Lemon Sugar Cookies comes from real lemon! No extract needed.

    Vanilla: For background character.

    Frozen Wild Blueberries: My favorite brand is Wymans.

    Mini White Chocolate Chips: I used Enjoy Life white chocolate chips.

    Method

    These Vegan Lemon Blueberry Sugar Cookies are so easy to make in just a few steps!

    Start by defrosting the frozen blueberries by either letting them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or microwaving them for about 30 seconds.

    Then, cream together vegan butter, sugar and lemon zest.

    Next add lemon juice, vanilla and defrosted blueberries along with any juice they have released and mix until combined.

    Then add flour, baking powder and salt.

    And now, add some white chocolate chips.

    Finally, scoop, chill and bake!

    Top Recipe Tip

    I know its tempting, but don't skip the chill time!

    The cookies will bake much thinner.

    Use Frozen Wild Blueberries

    I chose frozen wild blueberries for these Vegan Lemon Blueberry Sugar Cookies for a couple reasons.

    First, frozen blueberries are consistent in flavor year-round.

    Second, and specifically, wild blueberries have the most blueberry flavor!

    So these cookies will have big blueberry flavor no matter when you make them.

    My favorite brand is Wymans.

    My Favorite Baking Sheet

    My favorite baking sheets are these by Nordic Ware.

    They are sturdy, bake evenly and will last forever.

    Favorite Cookie Scoops

    Using a cookie scoop is the best way to get evenly sized and round cookies.

    I have this cookie scoop by Cuisinart. Its scoops about 3 tablespoons of dough if you use a flat scoop.

    I was heaping the scoops because I like jumbo cookies.

    Storage

    To store these Vegan Lemon Blueberry Cookies, place the cookies in an airtight container and keep at room temperature for up to three days.

    Or, freeze for up to a month.
