Gluten Free Surprise Oatmeal Chip Cookies Food

EASY GLUTEN-FREE OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Make the dough. Stir together melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add egg and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth. The mixture will look like caramel sauce. Add the gluten-free flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Sir until you don't see any streaks of flour. Add the oats and chocolate chips or raisins. Mix until combined.
• Scoop and Bake. Drop dough, about two tablespoons each, onto one of the prepared baking sheets. Space dough about one inch apart. These don't spread much. Bake until set, about 12 minutes.
• Cool. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for minutes. (While they cook, bake the remaining dough on the second baking sheet.) Transfer cookies to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
• Store. Keep the cookies covered on the counter for up to four days or freeze for up to three months. To freeze cookies: place in a freezer container and separate layers with a piece of wax or parchment paper. Thaw overnight on the counter.

GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Sift the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda into a large bowl; set aside.
• To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar and beat on medium speed until fluffy and light in color, about 4 minutes.
• While mixing, add the eggs, one at a time, scraping the bowl after each addition and mixing until combined. Add the vanilla and mix until incorporated.
• Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients to the bowl in 2 additions, mixing on low, scraping after each addition and mixing until just combined. Add the chocolate chips and mix until combined.
• Scoop the dough into 1-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Chill the dough balls for at least 30 minutes or up to several hours before baking.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. (if using a convection oven, preheat it to 325 degrees F.). Adjust one oven rack to the upper-middle position and the other oven rack to the lower-middle position.
• Bake the cookies, rotating the baking sheets from top to bottom to top midway through baking, until golden around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes total. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.

• NOTES:.
• I use Bob's Red Mill 1:1 Gluten Free Baking Flour with great success. I also use Bob's Red Mill gluten free oats but Quaker gluten free oats work equally well.
• NOTES: Applesauce adds needed moisture and "chewy" mouth feel to gluten free cookies, and you wont taste the applesauce.
• NOTES: I use unsweetened coconut but if all you have is sweetened coconut then use that (same portion) but decrease granulated sugar in recipe by about 1 tablespoon.
