Hodgson Mill

I'm on day 11 of gluten-free and was lamenting Oreos earlier today. I skeptically bought my first gluten-free baking mix - Hodgson Mill Cookie Dough. And now I know that all's right with the world. I CAN DO THIS! I think it was actually yummier than regular dough!

What kind of cookies did you make? I'm trying to prepare myself for the holidays. I usually make lots of cookies with my kids. :(

What kind of cookies did you make? I'm trying to prepare myself for the holidays. I usually make lots of cookies with my kids. :(

I haven't tried any cookie mixes, although I was impressed with Gluten-Free Pantry's truffle brownie mix (even more awesome with a few tbsp of peanut butter swirled into the batter before baking) and all-purpose flour (used to successfully replace gluteny flour in a standard cranberry-nut bread recipe).

So far I've done my gluten-free cookies from scratch with mostly good results. The best results were from the 36-Hour Chocolate Chip cookie recipe on the Open Original Shared Link blog. The recipe made a HUGE batch and my gluten-eating family and friends scarfed them down. This year the same bloggers are posting a new gluten-free cookie recipe every weekday in December up until the 23rd. Here's the first post for Jam Tarts and a list of what they'll be posting later in the month: Open Original Shared Link

Long story short: you can totally still make all sorts of cookies with your kids. Have fun, good luck, and happy holidays!

TPT, I used Hodgson Mills Cookie Mix and added chocolate chips. They were in my local Kroger and were less than $2.50 for a box that made two dozen decent-sized cookies.

I also figure that there are other cookies that I grew up with that I could make if I get the gluten-free version of the cereals to make them....like Rice Crispy treats and those cute wreaths made of Corn Flakes.

I haven't seen those yet in my store but I know I've seen other Hodgson Mill products. I've had great success making the Betty Crocker gluten-free chocolate chip cookies. And you can also make a really good peanut butter cookie without even buying any special flours: Open Original Shared Link

Easiest peanut butter cookies in the world.

1 cup peanut butter

1 cup sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1 egg

dash of salt

mix these few ingredients together. roll into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet. flatten cookies with fingers or bottom of a glass whatever works.. bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes until they start to brown on the edges. Remove from oven and COOL THEM COMPLETELY ON THE COOKIE SHEET so they don't crumble. Once they are completely cooled they are the best peanut butter cookies I've ever had. My non gluten free son loved them too.

Cookies? Forget that. Make chocolate truffles!

Other great holiday goodies that are naturally gluten-free are stuffed dates, pecan turtles, and fudge.

Thanks for the review! I just added this book to my Amazon wish list (as if I need another gluten-free cookbook). Let us know what other awesome things you bake from recipes in this book.

One thing I determined with the cookies is that their recipe calls for more of their flour mix than my regular 'gluten' cookie recipe calls for and they were a bit floury. Next time I'm going to cut the flour mix by 1/2 cup and see if that helps. They were awesome but not like my 'pre-gluten cookies' and maybe that's not possible to copy them but I'm going to try!!! :)

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also...

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to...

I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?
