    • Gluten Free Oatmeal Scotchie Cookies

    Ingredients

    • Gluten Free Flour
    • Gluten Free Rolled Oats
    • Baking Powder
    • Sea Salt
    • Baking Soda
    • Ground Cinnamon
    • Unsalted Butter
    • Brown Sugar
    • Granulated Sugar
    • Eggs
    • Vanilla Extract
    • Butterscotch Chips

    Instructions

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line three baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

    In a mixing bowl whisk together the gluten free flour, gluten free oats, baking powder, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Set aside.

    In the bowl of your stand mixer add the unsalted butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Beat together about 3-4 minutes until combined and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat to combine.

    Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat just until combined. Add the butterscotch chips and blend or hand mix them with a spatula into the cookie dough.

    Refrigerate the dough for 20-30 minutes so it's easier to work with and won't spread as much in the oven.

    Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon place twelve cookies on each baking sheet. Press them down slightly with your hand. If the dough is sticking to your hand wet your hand with a little water.

    Bake the cookies at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes. The cookies will be dark golden brown when they are done.

    Place the cookies on cooling racks and let them cool completely before you store them in an air tight container.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I freeze these cookies?

    Yes. I like to freeze the cookies after they have been baked. I put the baked cookies in a freezer safe container and freeze them for up to a month, but they rarely last that long.

    I love to make a double batch of cookies and freeze half of them for lunches on days that I don't have any treats prepared.

    How do you keep these cookies from spreading too much when I bake them?

    It is important that you refrigerate this gluten free oatmeal scotchie cookie dough for at least one hour before baking. If you don't refrigerate the dough it's harder to work with and the cookies will spread too much when you bake them.
