To make Lemon Poppy Seed Thins, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon milk

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the lemon zest and poppy seeds and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, until a smooth dough forms. Roll the dough into a log shape and wrap it in plastic wrap. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Once chilled, slice the dough into thin rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Lemon Poppy Seed Thins are a delightful combination of sweet and tangy flavors with a satisfying crunch. They are perfect for any occasion and can be enjoyed with a cup of tea or coffee. Try making a batch today and share them with your loved ones!
