So far in my gluten free cookie series we have covered Gluten Free Ranger Cookies and Gluten Free Death By Chocolate Cookies. Today I have a classic oatmeal raisin cookie for you.
Oatmeal raisin cookies are one of those cookies that almost everyone knows and loves. And since it was one of those cookies that everyone loves, I knew I had to make it gluten free.
The sorghum in this recipe pairs very nicely with the oatmeal and raisins. The flavors just seem to go together. These cookies also have a lot of raisins in them, I mean it is not an oatmeal raisin cookie without a lot of raisins is it?!
These gluten free cookies are the perfect cookie to keep in the freezer for quick lunch box desserts or after school treats.

What does the oven temp need to be? Maybe I just missed it. I’ll try 375 and see how it goes. 🙂
Lynn
So sorry about that. 350 and I fixed the recipe. I hope you enjoyed them.
Carissa
You forgot to add “cup” for potato starch.
Lynn
I just fixed it. Thanks for letting me know.

Hi Lynn, these recipes look great – I’m planning to try out the double chocolate peanut butter cookies later today.
I wondered whether you might like to note that many coeliacs can’t eat oats, even gluten-free ones, because there’s a protein in them, “gliadin”, which has the same effect on the gut as gluten. I’m on the lookout for a good oats substitute, but if you know of one it would be great to see it included as an option in the recipe 🙂
Lucy
Sorry, that should have read oats contain “avenin”, which has the same effect as gluten (gliadin is the protein in wheat…)
