Ingredients
3 tbsp lime juice 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk 1/2 cup (1 stick) earth balance margarine, softened 3/4 cup sugar 1 flax egg (1 tsp ground flax seed, mixed with 3 tbsp water) 2 tsp finely grated lime zest 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda pinch of salt
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment or foil prepared with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the flax egg, then add the lime juice, zest, and almond milk; mix well. Sprinkle half of the flour mixture over the wet ingredients; stir until combined. Sprinkle the rest of the dry ingredients on top and mix until combined.
Scoop batter with medium-sized cookie scoop and put onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between the cookies. Pat down mounds of batter slightly to flatten.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until cookies are somewhat firm. Allow cookies to cool on the sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer to wire cooling racks. Cool completely before frosting.
