Oh, they sound heavenly--but I don't like margarine. Would butter work? Or shortening? Or should I use coconut oil?

Im so excited to try them, we are all sick right now so it will have to wait till we get better. buffettbride- I hope your daughter likes them.

mamaw- Im paranoid about using gluten-free oats, Im so sensitive it wouldnt shock me if it bothered me too. I bet it would taste good with them though.

fiddlefaddle- I would imagine butter would be fine to use.

Gosh! Little Debbie Oatmeal Cremes were my staple in high school!!! :P I can't wait to make these! I have a question about the flour mix - how much xanthum gum do I add? Most of my mixes don't come with it, so I add it to the recipe.

My wife made these for me and our kids tonight. They are awesome. I ate until I got a stomach ache. We used gluten-free oats and WOW. Anyone that says gluten-free doesn't taste good needs to try these.

Thank you for sharing the recipe with us.

Laura- i will have to look it up for you tomorrow, I almost always use a blend with it in it.

binky- yeah! Im glad it taste so good, it makes me really excited to try them :D Hopefully next weekend as we are running on fumes around here. Your very welcome :) I was so excited when I read this recipe for the first time its nice to enjoy foods that make us feel normal again before going gluten free :D

Standard addition of xanthan gum is one teaspoon for every 1- 1 1/2 cups of flour. (I think, I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.)

You are right, there was a recent post about about how much xanthum gum/cup of flour. It's 1 tsp/cup of gluten-free flour for cookies.

Glutenfreefamily Enthusiast

Sorry Laura, I forgot to post the info on xantham gum, Im having major brain fog today :blink:

Belinda, My friend only uses quinoa flakes and her kids love them hopefully they will taste just as good that way.

I made these cookies the other day and they were a hit!! Even my non gluten-free friends loved them! I put in gluten-free oatmeal instead of the quinoa and theywere just like Little Debbies! I wasn't sure how it would taste with the quinoa, but I had a recent baking disaster so I was a little aprehensive about using it.

I will definitely make these again!

Im so glad they turned out well for you! I have yet to try them as I have been dieting lately and I know this would blow it since I would eat too many ;)

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
