Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. You can use All Purpose Gluten Free Flour at a 1:1 ratio. You will also need to make sure the rolled oats you use are gluten free.
I like to use dark chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Most mix-ins such as nuts, nut butters, seeds and different types of chocolate will not affect the end result of the batter.
However, fruit (especially if frozen) may have an impact on the final result and texture of the cookies.
The cookies are done baking when the edges and bottom are slightly golden. However the center of the cookie should still be soft.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Or store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
