Second, why when we develop celiac disease, do we give ourselves a free pass on healthy eating?  On what planet would any average health-conscious adult make a recipe that's this bad for heart, weight, blood glucose levels??  I know it's decidedly hard to make healthy baked products that taste good without wheat flour, but what are we trading our gut problems in for when every posted sweet recipe is a heart attack on a plate?<br/><br/>

This does not make me an alcoholic. I enjoy having an occasional non-processed, homemade cookie with butter. That does not mean I live on a different planet and/or disregard my health. It's called moderation, dear. Try it in your diet...and in your blog postings.<br/><br/>

Does being a celiac automatically mean you cant eat anything with sugar?

Some of us like cookies!<br/><br/>

So, the cookies in the photo are likely vegan, but this recipe makes no such claim. Secondly, I think it's a bit disingenuous to criticize a cookie recipe if you don't like cookies, or baked goods or such. The recipe is for people who want to make a tasty gluten-free cookie. I think it should be weighed on those merits. Lastly, as for healthy eating, celiac.com offers many healthy recipes. If you look, I'm sure you will find recipes that work for you.<br/><br/>

Chew on a root if you want a low sugar snack.<br/><br/>

A little bit of a "not so healthy" treat once in a while ... Christmas! ... isn't going to make a difference.  Eat a cookie and then get back on track with more healthy food choices.  Fact is, as gluten-intolerant people, we're deprived of many tasty foods, so let's splurge for a cookie or two during the holidays.  Merry Christmas to all GF folks!<br/><br/>

You do not get to decide what the rest of the world eats. All I want to know when I read comments is: did the recipe work or not. And if you believe you are saving the world with such aggressive comments, think again. If anything, you might provoke a person to feel the urge to eat an entire cheesecake simply out of rebellion.<br/><br/>

My 16 year old type 1 diabetic, celiac disease daughter just asked me if I would make her some cookies.  Something she seldom "splurges" on.  Looking forward in trying this out tonight.  I will use half Splenda/ half sugar and let you know how they turn out.<br/><br/>

While these cookies LOOK delicious, I can't justify the butter and sugar...I will, however, attempt to make it using applesauce or bananas for the butter and cut down on the sugar, and if that works, it will be considerably better for my heart.<br/><br/>
