1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup sugar

2 large egg yolks

2 tablespoons poppy seeds

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking soda. In a small bowl, mix together sugar, egg yolks, poppy seeds, oil, lemon zest, and vanilla.

Stir egg mixture into flour mixture until combined (dough will be crumbly).

Roll dough into teaspoon-sized balls.

Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until cookies are golden, about 10 minutes.

Transfer cookies to a wire rack to let cool completely.

Store in an airtight container.
