Celiac.com 02/28/2023 - Everyone knows about Walker's Shortbread, but did you know that they also now make Certified Gluten-Free versions of their beloved treats? We were delighted to try the following new gluten-free versions, which use a proprietary blend of rice flour, corn flour, and potato starch to replace the traditional wheat flour:
- Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Shortbread
- Gluten Free Ginger & Lemon Shortbread
- Gluten Free Shortbread Rounds
It should be no surprise that each of these new varieties use the same high-quality butter and sugar as their original wheat-based counterparts, and are still baked in small batches to ensure their classic taste, but what was a big surprise to us is that Walker's has somehow found a way to capture the same amazing flavor, aroma, soft crunchiness, and mouth feel that are trademarks of their original versions.

In fact, they've created perfect crossover gluten-free shortbread cookies which sacrifice nothing—even for those without gluten issues, and they do, indeed, live up to the Walker's promise: "all the pure-butter taste, aroma and texture you love, but without the gluten."
Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Shortbread
If you're a chocolate chip cookie lover like me, then you must try Walker's Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Shortbread! These cookies are the perfect combination of crispy shortbread and delectable chocolate chips. I love how the chocolate chips are just the right amount, not overpowering the shortbread taste, but giving it an extra chocolate kick. Every bite is heavenly, and they are perfect for satisfying your chocolate chip cookie cravings. These cookies are so delicious that it's hard to believe they're gluten-free! I highly recommend these cookies to everyone, whether you're gluten sensitive or not.
Gluten Free Ginger & Lemon Shortbread
Walker's Gluten Free Ginger & Lemon Shortbread is a game-changer for me. I love the combination of the warm, spicy sweetness of stem ginger with the tangy freshness of lemon. This cookie has the perfect amount of lemon flavor with a nice ginger finish. The texture is perfectly crumbly, and it melts in my mouth with every bite. I can taste the high-quality ingredients that make these cookies so special, and the ginger aroma is simply divine.
Walker's Ginger & Lemon cookies are perfect for a snack, a dessert, or even with a cup of tea or coffee. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to try something unique and flavorful—you'll be hooked after just one bite!
Gluten Free Shortbread Rounds
Walker's Gluten Free Shortbread Rounds are the ultimate shortbread experience. The rich butter flavor is fully unleashed in this cookie, and the crumbly texture is just perfect. These cookies are the purest form of shortbread, without any distractions. Every bite is like a hug from a dear friend, comforting and satisfying.
I love how these cookies can be enjoyed on their own or paired with other desserts. They're perfect for any occasion, whether you're celebrating a special event or just having a casual snack. I highly recommend these cookies to anyone who wants to experience the authentic taste of shortbread. Trust me, you won't find a better shortbread cookie out there!
