A simple recipe for soft and chewy oatmeal raisin cookies made entirely without gluten, using certified gluten-free oats.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups certified gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup raisins

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the gluten-free rolled oats and raisins by hand.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. For chewier cookies, slightly flatten the dough balls with the bottom of a glass.
  8. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly soft.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use certified gluten-free rolled oats to avoid cross-contamination. Do not substitute with oat flour unless you adjust the liquid content.
  • For a softer cookie, slightly underbake them. They will firm up as they cool.
  • If your gluten-free flour blend does not contain xanthan gum, add 1/2 teaspoon to the dry ingredients to help bind the dough.
