Raw lemon cookie recipe

1 cup cashews (unsoaked)

3/4 to 1 cup of unsweetened coconut flakes (AKA dried coconut)

The juice of one medium lemon

1 tablespoon agave nectar or maple syrup (you could use honey but they won't dehydrate as well since honey won't solidify at low raw temperatures)

Raw lemon cookie recipe recipe from RowanC

Directions

1. Process the cashews in a food processer until they resemble coarse flour.

2. Add the coconut and process again until very well mixed.

3. Add the lemon and the sweetener. Process again until resembling dough. (If it's a bit too wet, add more coconut. If it's a bit dry, add a tiny bit of water.)

4. Shape into cookies and dehydrate for 8 hours for a nice, moist cookie. Eat right away and refrigerate leftovers. Dehydrate for longer if you want to store them for a longer shelf life.

The Rawtarian's Thoughts

Raw lemon cookie recipes were on the top of my list of recipes to make when I recently received my new dehydrator.

Once again, this is a delightfully simple recipe that only contains four ingredients: cashews,  unsweetened coconut, a lemon, and a sweetener like honey or agave nectar.

These cookies have a sweet, simple, creamy flavour and you'll be amazed at how much lemon flavour comes from just one lemon. This is a small recipe, which is perfect for sampling. Try a small batch and see how you like these raw lemon coconut cookies.
