SOFT & CHEWY OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES - GLUTEN FREE



Soft & Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies - Gluten Free image

A recipe from www.celiac.com that I have altered slightly. If your flour mix does not include xanthan gum, add 1 T of ground flax seed (although you may add it anyway as the outcome of the recipe won't be affected). It is also very important to chill the dough before you bake them - they won't spread as much. NOTE; If you are making this recipe as a non-gluten free recipe using regular all-purpose flour, do not use quick oats as the recipe was made with regular long cooking oats.

Time 22m

Yield 24 cookies, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup brown rice flour
1 1/4 cups gluten-free oats, plus
2 tablespoons gluten-free oats
1/4 cup avocados or 1/4 cup canola oil

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, I used mini chunks
2 -3 tablespoons almond milk or 2 -3 tablespoons soymilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Whisk well to loosen up any clumps. Set aside for a minute.
  • In another mixing bowl, combine the oil with the sugars and mix with an electric mixer until creamy. About a minute. Slowly add the egg and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix again with the electric mixer.
  • You should have a thick batter. Fold in chocolate chips. If you need to, add a tablespoon at a time of almond milk to make a nice texture for scooping into balls.
  • Place in fridge for about 10 minutes.
  • Take out of the fridge and with a small cookie scooper, make 12 mounds on each cookie sheet. With wet fingers, press down slightly. The cookies will spread out.
  • Bake one cookie sheet at a time for about 8 to 12 minutes. (Ovens will vary) After 5 minutes, rotate the pan around. When the cookies seem lightly golden, take out and let rest on a wire rack until cool. Then repeat with the other cookie sheet.
  • The cookies will remain soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. A sure winner!
  • Makes 24 large cookies.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 very ripe bananas
1/3 c creamy, natural peanut butter
1 1/2 c rolled oats
1/4 c finely chopped walnuts
1/4 c dark chocolate chips (i use the kind with 60% cacao or better)
2 Tbsp raisins
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. While the oven is preheating, use a potato masher or fork to mash the banana very well.
  • 3. Add 1/3 cup peanut butter to the banana, then stir in oats.
  • 4. Next stir in raisins, walnuts and chocolate chips, until well incorporated.
  • 5. Shape into 2 inch cookies.
  • 6. Place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
  • 7. Bake for 12 minutes. Cool on rack before eating.

Tips:

  • Use certified gluten-free oats to ensure your cookies are safe for those with celiac disease or gluten intolerance.
  • If you don't have gluten-free all-purpose flour, you can make your own by blending regular all-purpose flour with xanthan gum.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • For chewier cookies, use more brown sugar. For crispier cookies, use more white sugar.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins, such as chocolate chips, raisins, or nuts, to the cookie dough before baking.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges but still soft in the center. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.

Gluten-free oatmeal cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a batch of these cookies that are sure to be a hit.
