Instructions
  1. In a big bowl put the rice flour and the starch and mix well.
  2. In another bowl add the coconut flower sugar and the butter and mix again well
  3. Add the lemon zest and the eggs, mix well and add then slowly the flour mixture. Stir first with a wooden spoon, then take your hands to kneel the dough. It will be a soft but firm dough ball.
  4. Preheat the oven to 225°C/350°F and put a parchment paper on a baking sheet.
  5. Now form small balls out of the dough and put them on the baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden.
Recipe Notes

They should be eaten while they are still warm. 

Roll them in pure sugar (paleo friendly), in a sugar mix with cinnamon or leave them ‘bare’ like I did.

You can fry them as well. In this case take a frying pot, add frying oil and put a few dough balls at a time into the hot boiling oil. Take them out when they begin to turn golden brown, put them on a paper towel to absorb the excess oil and then roll them in the sugar/mix or leave them ‘naked’.

You can dust them also with colored icing to make them more fun.
