Gluten-Free Monster Cookies

Gluten Free

Daphne asked for this recipe, so here it is – one of our best gluten free cookie recipes, from a bag of Gluten Free Oats. In honor of Daphne, Bill and Cupcake. Who can resist the combination of peanut butter, oats and chocolate?

I know some people with Celiac Sprue are not able to eat oats, even gluten-free oats, but fortunately we can, and love them.

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup butter, room temperature
• ¾ cup sugar
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp gf vanilla
• 1 cup peanut butter
• 1 ¼ tsp baking soda
• 3 cups Gluten Free rolled Oats ®
• 6 ounces GF chocolate chips or M & Ms or Heath English Toffee Bits
• ½ cup GF sunflower seeds or chopped walnuts, optional

Instructions:

• Preheat oven at 350 º.
• Beat sugar, brown sugar and butter until creamy.
• Add eggs, vanilla and baking soda and mix well.
• Add peanut butter and mix.  Stir in oats, chocolate chips and nuts.
