Lemon Thyme Olive Oil Cookies
Recipe courtesy George Duran

Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons milk
1 large lemon, zested and juiced

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment
paper or silicone baking sheets.

Put the flour, sugar, baking soda, pepper, and thyme into a bowl and whisk together to combine. In a
small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, milk, lemon juice, and zest. Add the liquid ingredients to

the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until you form a nice smooth dough.

Roll heaping teaspoonfuls of the dough into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared
baking sheets. Bake the cookies about 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are browned around the edges.
Let the cookies cool for a few minutes and then transfer them to wire racks to cool
completely.
