A few weeks ago I shared my love of Bob’s Red Mills new gluten free 1:1 baking flour. It really is one of my new favorite gluten free products. I have mentioned before how much I love Bob’s Red Mill gluten free products, but this new gluten free flour might be my favorite gluten free product that they make.
It has worked great in every recipe that I have tried it in. Including these amazing gluten free oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. As soon as I tasted these I knew they were perfect for my 30 Days of Gluten Free Candies and Cookies.
These cookies were so good. Even my gluten eating son and husband loved them. You know a gluten free cookie is good when a regular gluten eating person enjoys them. I lost count of how many of these gluten free cookies my son ate the day I made them. I know it was quite a few.
And the whole family enjoyed them as well. We don’t need to talk about how many I ate because it was way too many!
For all the recipes I have tried this blend in, I just substituted the 1 to 1 flour for the regular or gluten free flours and it worked great. For these cookies though I decided to change it up a little.
On the side of the package of the gluten free flour blend is a recipe for a classic chocolate chip cookie. Bob’s Red Mill has great recipes for using their products, so I knew it would be a great recipe. I decided to change up the recipe a little though and add some oatmeal to it.
I simply decreased the flour and added in some gluten free oatmeal. I thought the oatmeal would give them a little different texture. Plus some oatmeal in the recipe makes them at least semi healthy. Right?
Okay, so these are not healthy. It is the holidays. We can splurge a little and have a few cookies. They oatmeal does make them seem at least a little healthier and heartier. Plus, it makes them taste great.
These cookies have the perfect texture for an oatmeal cookie. They are slightly crisp on the outside and chewy in the center. It is the best of both worlds in one cookie. The fact that they are gluten free makes them even better.
I made these with chocolate chips, but you could easily use raisins instead. Or make them with a combination of both. These cookies would be good with any of those choices.
And these are a must make for any day, not just the holidays. These would be the perfect cookie to keep in the freezer for the gluten free child or person in your family.

Thanks for providing this roadmap! I added another cup of oatmeal and subbed coconut butter for the butter. This was our first gluten free cookie attempt and both my boys ate 4. Success!
I am so glad that it worked for you! I love the addition of oats and coconut. And I am glad to know they worked well dairy free.
I tried 1 doz 1st – then doubled the oats. Came out yummy
So you doubled the oats without changing anything else? I’m about to make them and trying to figure out the right amount of oats and gf flour.
Hi, I made the recipe as I posted it. What I changed was the original recipe. I added oats to it. I hope that makes sense and I hope that you enjoy them! Let me know if that doesn’t answer your question.
Can you substitute coconut oil for the butter? Or do you have another suggestion?
I have tried coconut oil in place of butter in other recipes, but not this one. It usually changes the textures slightly, but usually works fine. A lot of people that need to eat diary free use coconut oil for cookies. If you try it I would love to know what you think.
They turned out delicious! Flat but delicious lol! There wasn’t any left. I have to do dairy free and wasn’t sure about like smart balance butter (vegan butter) or coconut oil. I am wanting to make them again right now actually lol and may try to half and half the butter and coconut oil? Thanks so much for your reply and the recipe!! Delish will always be a fam fav!!!
I am so glad that they turned out and that your family enjoyed them! I love helping others make gluten free and other allergy issues easy and delicious! So thank you so much for letting me know!
These cookies are excellent. I am fighting with my non gluten-free family members because they are eating all my cookies! Super chewy and rich! Love these cookies!
I am so glad to hear that! I love it when I hear that one of my gluten free recipes is so good that no one knows it is gluten free! Thank you so much for letting me know!
I followed the recipe and let them cool for a few minutes and went to take them off the pan and they broke. Any suggestions
How was the texture once they cooled? Were they done? If they were done, my suggestion would be to let them cool on the cookie sheet a little longer to see if that helps them not fall apart when you take them off. I hope that helps.
Yet again another GF failure. Tester cookie spread out thinner than a pancake so I added 1/2 cup flour and 1/4 cup oats … still no luck? I hate that I can’t do this!
Gluten free cooking is challenging. Don’t’ give up. The more you do it the easier it gets. I would be glad to see if we can figure out what went wrong with the recipe. Did you use Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 blend or another gluten free blend? Did you substitute anything in the recipe?
I’ve made these cookies 3 times now and they are fabulous! I follow the recipe, except I cut the salt in half since using salted butter, and my cookies are perfect…chewy and buttery with a little crisp and just how we like our cookies. And nobody knows they’re GF and with oatmeal. This is my go to recipe now. Thank you so much!
I am so glad that you enjoy the cookies! Thanks so much for letting me know. And now I might just have to make a batch this afternoon. 🙂
This is my first time baking with a gluten-free flour. These cookies are amazing! I did alter a little by adding an extra cup of oats and a 3.4 oz box of instant vanilla pudding. Crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
I am so glad that you enjoyed the cookies! I have added pudding to other cookies, but never these. I love that idea and will have to give it a try.
