    Apple Butter Cookies (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.
    This recipe comes to us from Valerie Thayer.

    Ingredients:
    2 cups gluten-free flour mix
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    ¼ teaspoon cloves
    ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1 cup dates, quartered (optional)
    1 cup seedless raisins
    ½ cup margarine or butter
    1 cup sugar
    1 egg
    1 cup Lucky Leaf Apple Butter

    Directions:
    Combine dry ingredients. In another bowl, cream butter and sugar; stir in egg, dates, and raisins. Stir in dry ingredients alternately with apple butter. Chill dough for about 30 minutes. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto greased baking sheet 2 inches apart. Bake in preheated 375F degree oven for about 12 minutes.

     To help prevent the cookies from spreading too much we chilled the dough before dropping onto a baking sheet. These cookies can stick together once cooled so I always slip a sheet of wax paper between them. And these freeze well for later!!

    Try making them with Xylitol, it works just like sugar but is safe for diabetics, and delicious. Plus, no cavities!

    I love these cookies! I first made them for my brother, and now am making them for another friend who recently learned he can't have gluten. Thanks for a great recipe!

    Any suggestions on making it egg free...I was going to try using applesauce as a replacement (as I normally do for other baking needs) but....this already has apple butter so would that be too much apple?

    Preheat oven to 350.
    In a bowl mix:
    2 ¼ cups tapioca flour
    1 tsp. salt
    1/3 cup sugar
    ½ tsp. xanthan gum (omit for pie crust)
    In a blender or food processor mix:
    1 cup Filberts/Macadamias
    ¼ cup water
    ½ cup canola oil
    1 tsp. vanilla
    Grind the nuts very fine. Add contents of food processor to bowl and mix. Roll into balls and flatten. Bake on greased cookie sheet at 350 for 10 - 15 minutes, or until they begin to turn golden-brown. The recipe makes 2 ½ dozen cookies.
    This dough rolls out on a potato-starch-floured board quite successfully to make cookie-cutter cookies. It also makes an excellent pie crust - flaky and delicious. Cover the edges with foil and pre-bake for 15 minutes before filling.

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?

      Blood tests low iGA 4 years later digestive issues

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not...
