Gluten and Dairy Free Lavender Cookies
With a delicate hint of lavender, these cookies are a summer favourite of mine. Each flavoursome bite reminds me of my very joyful visits to the lavender farms!
As the recipe title suggests, they are gluten and dairy free as well as refined sugar free. And with the added wellbeing benefits of lavender, these cookies are a healthy alternative to your usual sweet cookie treats.
I was inspired to make these having tried another delicious cookie recipe. Click here to checkout the original inspiration. I tweaked it a little and added food grade dried lavender to take it one step further with delightful results!
