Enter, these gluten free oatmeal cookies. Or maybe I should call them gluten free chocolate chip cookies. Either works! Years of slimy oatmeal breakfasts as a child, forced by my dear mother, created a need for new uses for oats. I’m a lover of those chocolate oatmeal no bake cookies like the ones at our class reunion. My recipe for meat loaf always includes oatmeal for a binding agent. So, oats in various types are a pantry staple. Can I be honest for a minute? Baked oatmeal cookies are usually just not loved here. But, cookies that are gluten free? AND delicious? YES, please! Gluten free cookies with oatmeal? I had to give this recipe a try. Out came the old fashioned rolled oats…like the ones my Mama used. Which made me cringe a bit. For a bit of a twist, those oats took a toast in the oven before beginning. That’s a new one for me. And what I had never done was make an “oat flour”. I have a flour mill, but have never ground oats with it. Enter…using a food processor to grind the oats into flour. WHAT?!! Can I also tell you that old fashioned oats are less expensive than buying oat flour? Cost savings built into this recipe. You’re welcome. Have you made oat flour? I’d love to know in the comments! The main thing about this oatmeal cookie recipe? The oat flour provides a great base for making these your own version of a gluten free oatmeal cookie. Genius! Now, the recipe that I began with had a different variation…and since some of those ingredients were less than favorites…you got it! I changed it. Don’t we all often leave things out we don’t care for…and add things we love into our recipes? So, raisins were left out, chocolate chips added in. If I were the only one eating them? Coconut and pecans would be added, so feel free to make your favorite version of these, too. People in my household don’t care for the texture of coconut…but, love the coconut flavor in kitchen sink cookies…so out came the coconut extract. Almond extract is a flavor we love in pound cake, so this recipe had a smidge of that added, if you are wondering why. Feel free to leave those out, or add more in. This is what I put together that was LOVED by those who needed gluten free cookies at my table. These cookies turned out crispy and delicious. Kid and big kid approved. Served with a glass of milk…and feel free to add a 10 second warm in the microwave to make those chocolate chips a little melty. I love that you can freeze them to bake for later. Prevents us from eating too many of these! And then? They are perfect to add to the oven when guests have their feet under your table. What’s better than that? And, for those who don’t need a gluten free cookie? They will love them, too. These may be my favorite cookie recipe. Another fact for you: Oats are known for raising good cholesterol and lowering bad cholesterol. I’ll take that as another reason to have another cookie. Seriously, these may have to be regulated. They. Are. That. Good. Adding them to other holiday versions…Christmas tins..now, I’m going down the bunny hole of adding more ingredients for a kitchen sink version. Who’s with me here? Here are a few of my favorite products to use for this recipe. More gluten free favorites… Happy Gluten free eating or hosting, friends!
