Why We Love these Vegan Rhubarb Cookies with Lemon Burst
One of my favorite foods of all time is rhubarb. It’s so unique and delicious. It’s tart by itself, but when rhubarb’s mixed with sugar it’s such a wonderful combination, especially in baked desserts.
The same goes with lemon! Here we have two tart fruits competing against each other, but the sugar balances it all out! These vegan rhubarb cookies are sensational! They’re delicious, soft, and light. The light blast of lemon really goes well with the overall flavor of them too.
Rhubarb is a very nutritious food. It’s high in fiber, protein, vitamin C, vitamin K, B complex vitamins, calcium, potassium, magnesium, beta-carotene, antioxidants, lutein, and zeaxanthin, so you’re getting some good stuff in these cookies, plus the recipe is so easy! You’ll love it!
