Chocolate chip cookies, galore!

I made 3 1/2 dozen yesterday...and they actually turned out good! My husband licked the batter and ate almost a dozen throughout the day :P They were fairly moist (although, as with most cookies, one batch came out a little over brown and crunchy...but still tasty). I just had to share that something turned out good on my very first attempt! (which as we all know, isn't that easy to do when trying to go gluten-free) ;)

I'll be glad to post the ingredients if anyone is interested (although, I'm at work at the moment.

Have a blessed day everyone! -Julie :)

I'd love to have the recipe, they sound great.

Does anyone else know of a gluten-free Shortbread cookie recipe?

Thanks!

Hi Dana,

I just got home; I'll be happy to post the recipe:

gluten-free-Chocolate Chip Cookies:

3/4 C sugar

3/4 C brown sugar (firmly packed)

1 C butter or margarine

1 egg

mix together; then add:

2 1/4 C Gluten-free Flour Mix (sifted)

1 tsp. xan. gum

1 tsp. unflavored gelatin

12 oz. chocolate chips

Bake @ 350 for 10-14 minutes :P

Tips I found helpful:

Let the oven preheat well

I used gluten-free/CF chocolate chips; although that was a personal thing-not necessary

I used 1/2 Spectrum (tra?) gluten-free/CF margerine and 1/2 regular butter

I made sure to pack the brown sugar and sift the flour mix well (I used Bob's R.M.)

The recipe made 3 1/2-4 dozen "average" cookies or it can make 6 dozen ity-bity cookies ;)

Enjoy! -Julie

celiac3270,

Is the mix expensive? The only reason that I made my own is because I can make 12 dozen for the price of 2 dozen sent by Ener-G...and surprisingly enough, mine tasted better! :P But I've never tried the Arrowhead Mills brand though, I like some of their cereals....I'm always looking for "quick fix" junk food too! Thank you for the suggestion. I don't always have time to cook, but really, it didn't take but about 45 minutes to make all of those cookies this weekend...not to bad ;)

I have two boxes in the cabinet -- one cost $3.59, the other, $3.69. They make a nice amount of cookies, too. I have LOVED everything I've tried from Arrowhead Mills: the Rice and Shine hot cereal, the chocolate chip cookies, and the white cake is pretty good, too.

Julie (Imsohungry), I made your chocolate chip cookies yesterday. What flour mix do you use? (I'm one of those people that pick and choose flour now like I once would choose between types of tea! Hmm, what do I feel like using today... :lol: )

I used 2/3+1/4 c chickpea flour, 2/3 c soy flour and 2/3 c quinoa flour. I should have thought about the quinoa flour having a strong flavor, but I didn't. I baked a sheet's worth yesterday and tried one. Sorta blech (but my husband said they were okay.) Anyway, this morning while opening presents, I brought the rest of that batch down. My eldest tried one and announced VERY LOUDLY (he's loud in the first place :P ) that these were the most awesome chocolate chip cookies ever! Baffled, I tried one and, omigosh, they are the best! Whatever it is about the recipe and the flours, they melded into a very decedant treat. Mmmm! (So I baked the rest of the batch today and am not letting anyone eat them until tomorrow.)

Thank you for posting the recipe!

Hey Freya! I'm so glad that the cookies baked well for you!!! :P Happy Holidays! I'm actually making the cookies too for a "Christmas treat"...the hubby loves them, and I've got to admit that I'm hooked as well :rolleyes:

You asked what flour I use...mostly the Bob's Red Mill gluten-free flour mix, and that is because I live in a rather rural area and it is sold at Kroger (our local grocery). I would love to experiment with many different flours, but gosh, it's expensive! So, I'm slowly restocking everything and adding variety when I can afford it ;)

I'm just so tickled those cookies turned out for you and your family! Enjoy the holidays :D

Much hugs and happy baking! B);) -Julie

      Chances of being coeliac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Welcome @JoJo0611. That is a valid question.  Unfortunately the short answer is slim to none.  Be proactive, when the diagnosis process is completed, start GFD.  Remember also that the western diet is deficient in many nutrients that governments require fortification.  Read the side of a breakfast cereal box. Anti-tTG antibodies has superseded older serological tests It has a strong sensitivity (99%) and specificity (>90%) for identifying celiac disease. A list of symptoms linked to Celiac is below.  No one seems to be tracking it, but I suspect that those with elevated ttg, but not diagnosed with Celiac Disease, are diagnosed with celiac disease many years later or just die, misdiagnosed.  Wheat has a very significant role in our economy and society.  And it is addictive.  Anti-tTG antibodies can be elevated without gluten intake in cases of other autoimmune diseases, certain infections, and inflammatory conditions like inflammatory bowel disease. Transient increases have been observed during infections such as Epstein-Barr virus.Some autoimmune disorders including hepatitis and biliary cirrhosis, gall bladder disease. Then, at 65 they are told you have Ciliac Disease. Milk protein has been connected to elevated levels.   Except for Ireland and New Zealand where almost all dairy cows are grass fed, commercial diaries feed cows TMR Total Mixed Rations which include hay, silage, grains and concentrate, protein supplements, vitamins and minerals, byproducts and feed additives. Up to 80% of their diet is food that cannot be eaten by humans. Byproducts of cotton seeds, citrus pulp, brewer’s grains (wheat and barley, rye, malt, candy waste, bakery waste. The wheat, barley and rye become molecules in the milk protein and can trigger tTg Iga in persons suseptible to Celiac. I can drink Grass fed milk, it tastes better, like the milk the milkman delivered in the 50's.  If I drink commercial or Organic milk at bedtime I wake with indigestion.

      Dedicated gluten-free Restaurants in East Bay (near San Francisco):

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I strongly recommend 2 dedicated gluten free (gluten-free) restaurants in my area (East Bay of San Francisco Bay Area) (2025) -- Life is Sweet Bakery and Café in Danville. I've been a few times with friends and tried multiple entrees and salads. All very good and worth having again. I've also tried a number of their bakery goods. All extremely good (not just "good for gluten-free"). https://lifeissweetbakeryandcafe.com/ -- Kitara Kitchen in Albany (they have additional locations). I've been once and had the "Buritto Bowl". Six individual items plus a sauce. Outstanding. Not just "for gluten-free", but outstanding in its own right. Vibrant flavors, great textures. I can't wait to go back. https://www.kitava.com/location/kitava-albany/

      Celiac getting dentures

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.
