You can’t beat a classic like oatmeal cookies. Especially these Gluten Free Oatmeal Cookies, they are soft and chewy and completely irresistible. Keep them plain and simple, or mix it up with additions like chocolate chips, walnuts, or raisins.
I have baked dozens of batches of Gluten Free Oatmeal Cookies. I had a couple close successes, a few failures, and then I pulled these out of the oven. I wasted no time grabbing a glass of milk and dunking one of these.
The only appropriate way to flavour these cookies is with a generous amount of cinnamon. That’s what sets these cookies apart from other boring oatmeal cookies. A punch of fragrant cinnamon does wonders for a warm oatmeal cookie.
These cookies bake to the perfect thickness and have a nice balance between a chewy center and a slightly crispy crust. I know I’ve said it a thousand times, but that’s just the way I like my cookies. Bake them a little longer for a crispier cookie or a little less for a gooier cookie.
