Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies with White Chocolate Chips

Yield: 24 pcs

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups + 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup molasses
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg yolk
3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Stir in the oats.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, molasses, brown sugar, and granulated sugar, then whisk in the egg. Add the pumpkin and vanilla and mix until thick and completely combined. Pour into dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Stir in the white chocolate chips. The dough will be very thick.

Scoop cookie dough (~2 Tbsp for each cookie – I like to use my cookie scoop) onto prepared baking sheets. With wet hands, slightly flatten the dough to help the cookies spread in the oven.

Bake the cookies for 13-15 minutes until very lightly browned on the edges, but still soft in the centers. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheets. Store in an airtight container.

Cranberry Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Yield : 3 dozens

INGREDIENTS:

3/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or 2 scraped vanilla beans
1 1/2 cups brown rice flour *
3/4 cup tapioca starch *
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum *
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda *
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats *
3/4 cup dried cranberries
generous 1/2 cup white chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate or dark chocolate chips
* If you are not in need of a GF version of this recipe, simply reduce the baking soda to 1 teaspoon and substitute 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour and 3 cups oats for the items marked with an *

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and the sugar, until smooth, about 3-4 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth again.

In a separate bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients except the cranberries and chocolate. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, half at a time. Stir until fully combined. Add the cranberries and chocolate and stir well.

Using a medium size scoop or a rounded tablespoon, drop the dough onto a large baking sheet lined with a silpat mat. Bake for 8-12 minutes, depending on size. Remove from the oven before the cookies are lightly browned and when they still look soft in the center. Be careful not to over-bake. Let them cool on the same tray for 1-2 minutes; this will allow them to finish baking without overcooking. Store in an airtight container.

Sunbutter Sandwich Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

Cookie

• 1/2 cup sunbutter
• 1/2 cup butter or butter replacement (I use Earth Balance)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 egg (I used Ener-G egg replacer)
• 3/4 cup  flour (I used a gluten free blend – see below*)
• 1 cup rolled oats (quick oats would work well too)

Cream together butter, sunbutter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla. Mix in egg (or egg replacer).  Stir in baking powder and baking soda.  Mix well.  Gradually add flour and oatmeal, adding a little bit at a time, stirring in between each addition.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto lightly greased baking sheet, about 1 1/2 inches apart.  Slightly flatten cookie…I just used the palm of my hand. Bake @ 350 degrees for about 8 minutes, or until slightly browned. Cool on cooling rack.

Filling

• 1 Tbsp. butter (Earth Balance)
• 1 1/4 powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup sunbutter
• 2 tbsp soy milk or water

Cream all ingredients for filling together and mix until smooth.  Using a butter knife, spread the filling on the bottom of one cookie and place another cookie (bottom of cookie toward filling) on top of the filling to make a sandwich. Store in an airtight container. Can be frozen.

* I made my own gluten free flour mix a few weeks ago. It is so much easier than pulling out all of those different flours out each time I bake. Unfortunately, I was just using up various flours that I had on hand and I don’t remember exactly what I used. This should be close to what I used:

• 1 cup sorghum flour
• 1 cup brown rice flour
• 1 cup white rice flour (I think I had regular and sweet rice flour left and threw them both in)
• 1 cup potato starch/tapioca flour (again, I had both left so I used up what I had left)

Mix well. Store in a ziploc bag in the refrigerator until ready to use. I’m sure there are lots of gluten free flour blend recipes out there. I haven’t done extensive research on the various blends yet but this worked well for me!
