Lemon Mint Cookies

Gluten Free Vegan Cookies seems to be an popular group of recipes to share lately!!  Who doesn’t like cookies?  The featured Lemon Mint Cookies recipe is an adaptation of The Daily Dietribe’s Banana Chocolate Chunk Cookies .  Both recipes look equally as good!

The author explains that this basic recipe can be changed to suit whatever goodies you may already have in your pantry.  I love recipes that have so many different variations.  I can see this one with raisins or nuts … or maybe oat flour ….
