Gluten Free Oatmeal Raisin Cookies – the search is over.

I have about 5 Oatmeal Raisin Cookie recipes in my recipe binder that I’ve tried to edit into gluten free goodness.  Frankly I just didn’t think that any gluten free recipe would be as good as MINE.  But alas, I have’t quite perfected that elusive chewy and crisp on the outside Oatmeal Raisin Cookie.  And after several flopped batches, I loose my motivation to keep wasting expensive gluten free oats!  Today Mike isn’t feeling well, and Oatmeal Raisin Cookies are his favorite, so I gave in, and searched for a GF recipe.  I’ve actually tried a couple GF oatmeal raising cookie recipes from my cookbooks but I haven’t had any that are truly blog-worthy.

UNTIL NOW

Here’s the recipe from Girl Cooks World, modified to use margarine instead of butter & shortening.

 

ENJOY!
