Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cream together softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in one large egg, followed by the vanilla extract and lemon zest, mixing until smooth.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in fresh blueberries, reserving a few to sprinkle on top.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for about 12 minutes or until edges are golden brown and centers remain soft.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
