This is going to be a quickly, time flies sometimes.
One of the items that my hubby misses the most is cookies. We have found a number of mixes that are very good - one in particular is the Betty Crocker Chocolate chip cookie mix. This recipe is particularly good. It calls for an All purpose gluten free flour. I like the one from Gluten Free Gourmet. Seems to work for almost anything.
2 parts white rice flour
2/3 part potato starch flour
1/3 part tapioca flour
Soft and Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies - the oatmeal and raisins make it healthy!!
1/2 cup margarine (no trans fat) softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg plus 1 egg white
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup gluten free flour mix
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups gluten-free oats
1/2 cup raisins (walnuts are also a good add in - adds omega 3 FA)
Cream together the sugars and butter. Add eggs one at a time until thoroughly mixed. Stir in the vanilla.
In a separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients, except oats. Mix well ( I like to use a mesh colander as a sifter) Stir dry ingredients into the creamed mixture. Stir in the oats and raisins. Cover the bowl and chill until cold - 2 hours at least.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Roll the dough into tablespoon sized balls and place at least 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly brown.
Cool on wire rack. Enjoy - no one will know these are gluten free. Really.
