Chocolate Chip Cookies

Hello there!

This is my very first post on this forum. My boyfriend has a gluten allergy and I would like to make him some amazing chocolate chip cookies. I have a GREAT recipe, but of course, it calls for regular white flour.

They are the type that spread out quite a bit and come out thin and crispy (probably due to all the butter!). :)

Is there a certain kind of gluten free flour sub that I can use? My first thought was almond or coconut flour, but then again ... what do I know? :)

My biggest concern is consistency because the best part about these cookies (besides the taste) is how thin and crispy they are.

Would love your thoughts and suggestions.

Thank you!

You could buy a box of the King Arthur gluten free flour and use that. Betty Crocker has a gluten free chocolate chip cookie mix that is really good as well. :)

I use my old pre-gluten-free recipe and it spreads out for a crispy cookie with Namasta all purpose flour blend and it works fine, actually my kids didn't realize they were gluten-free at first and I've taken them to parties and no one notices :rolleyes:

I have made both the King Arthur and Betty crocker cookies mixes. They are good but definitely not thin and crispy. I know what you what and those are not it.

I have made CC Tollhouse recipe with King Arthur gluten-free flour(not cookie mix ) and it absolutely spreads and gets crispy. My hubby loves it that way so he really enjoyed. I prefer the soft cookie so I make the mix for me.

I have not used Namaste , yet.

Thank you so much for the ultra quick responses!

I went with the Namaste Flour Blend ... (I'm in a time crunch and the other online reviews are great!).

I will post an update after I bake the cookies! :)

Thanks again!

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
