  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Let whisk for about 3-5 minutes or until light and fluffy.
  • In a small bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, & baking soda. Add flour mixture into the vegetable oil mixture and mix until just combined.
  • Let dough rest for at least an hour, I recommend letting it rest overnight.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit.
  • Roll cookie dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in the granulated sugar and then the powdered sugar to create the crinkle. Place evenly on a baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10 – 12 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
