Notes

  • My favorite baking flour for this recipe is Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 Baking Flour (it comes in a resealable light blue bag, usually found in the baking aisle).
  • Please double check that whatever add-ins you are using are gluten free. Double check the labels!
  • Cookies can be frozen in a sealed bag or container.
  • I've used these cookies to make ice cream sandwiches. Just be sure your ice cream isn't too hard to avoid breaking the cookies when taking your first bite.
