Oatmeal Raisin Cookies (Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free)

November 20, 2018 by Kari @ Minneceliac Leave a Comment

This is a perfect and easy cookie recipe filled with warm, inviting flavors of cinnamon, oats, and raisins…and probably memories of your youth! They hold together really well and are a great snack for kids and adults. If you don’t like raisins, then you can sub out chocolate chips and make this cookie just as delicious!

This post is sponsored by Chebe. Please know that I only work with brands I truly love and that I know you’ll love too!

Oatmeal raisin cookies split in half and then placed in a curvy line in the middle of two plates. There are raisins scatted in the upper left corner. I think my favorite food is…well, basically anything sweet. What can I say, I have a sweet tooth! I was trying out some different dessert type recipes using the Chebe cinnamon roll mix (one of my favorite mixes, by the way) and I inadvertently came up with these epic oatmeal raisin cookies!

Oats and Celiac Disease

Chebe bread is made from tapioca starch which makes it grain-free by nature. Adding in the oats makes those the only grains in these cookies. So if you can tolerate oats then this is a great recipe for you!

So, let’s talk about oats and Celiac Disease, shall we? Oats can be a tricky grain for those with Celiac Disease because they can be cross-contaminated with gluten grains. So you need to search out “purity protocol” oats. Gluten Intolerance Group states, “While studies have found that oats are safe for the vast majority of those with celiac disease, they can be contaminated by wheat, rye or barley during farming, processing and storage. Purity Protocol is a farm-to-plate method of ensuring that oats are gluten-free and have met requirements for seed stock purity as well as criteria for harvesting, transport, storage, processing and manufacturing.”

Five oatmeal raisin cookies stacked on top of each other then places on two small plates. There is a small jar of raw oats in the background on the left.

For this recipe, and any other recipe calling for oats, I choose Bob’s Red Mill. I have had excellent luck with all the other Bob’s gluten-free products and I trust that they are taking all the necessary steps to keep the gluten-free community safe. Here is what is posted on their website about their gluten-free oats: Bob’s Red Mill is proud to be a trusted source for gluten free oats, working with farmers who understand the concern and the need to keep grains separate, avoiding cross-contamination. At the mill, we test every load we receive for gluten before the oats even enter our gluten free processing facility. We test again during processing, and finally, we test a third time as the oats are being packaged to be sent to store shelves.

Mix It Up

This version of an oatmeal-raisin cookie is gluten-free and dairy-free! And the flavor is spot on. I didn’t even need to add any other cinnamon or spices to the mix. It is just that flavorful to begin with. I would really love to try making these with dried cherries and chocolate chips. Then you could dip one half in melted white chocolate and garnish with pistachios! That would even be a festive color combination for Christmas!

And how do we make these dairy-free? I actually used palm oil shortening as the base fat, which is a great baking alternative to butter.

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Mix palm oil shortening and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy. It will start to coat the sides of the mixing bowl when it's all combined.
  3. Add in eggs and vanilla and mix well.
  4. Add the entire package of Chebe Cinnamon Roll Mix, baking soda, and salt and then mix again until well-combined.
  5. Add in oats and raisins and mix until just combined. The batter will be thick and dense.
  6. For all of my cookie making, I like to use the OXO Good Grips Medium Cookie Scoop which holds 1 ½ tablespoons of dough. Fill the cookie scoop and then form into balls. Place balls of dough onto two parchment paper lined cookie sheets (12 per sheet).
  7. Squish the cookie dough balls down with your hand to make discs. These won't change shape much during the cooking process so make them the size and thickness you prefer!
  8. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 15 minutes until bottoms are golden brown.
  9. Cool and enjoy!

  • I posted in my stories today that Jack has a virus and croup which is putting a little damper on our Disney trip, but he will be fine so that’s all that matters. If you’ve never heard of croup before it’s just inflammation in the airway around the vocal cords that little kids sometimes get with a virus. It makes their cough sound like a barking seal. Jack gets it somewhat often and usually needs a steroid to help calm it down. So Brian took him to urgent care yesterday (which is no small feat when you don’t have a car OR a car seat but he’s basically Superman so he figured it out 😉). Jack was feeling a little better after the doctor so he asked Brian to take photos of him by all the characters around our resort. How could you not when these guys are your neighbors for the week? Art of Animation is a really fun hotel with different sections that are themed around The Little Mermaid, Finding Nemo, The Lion King, and Cars. It’s so fun for the kids! And adults! #shiftyourjanuary #intheneighborhood #artofanimationresort #disneyfood #disneyresort #thelionking #glutenfreedisney #glutenfreeblogger #glutenfreedom #glutenfreefood #glutenfreefollowme #wheatfree #senzaglutine #sansgluten #singluten #nogluten #glutenfree #gfree #glutenfreelife #glutenfreelifestyle #glutenfreeliving #glutenfreegoodness #celiac #celiacsafe #celiacfood #celiacsofig #celiacdisease #celiacawareness #celiacliving #minneceliac
  • It rained every single minute today. We rallied for a few hours but after the tears, wet shoes, and naps during lunch we decided to go back to our hotel and just rest for the day. The kids are watching The Lion King and I might just take a bath. It’s totally OK to not overdo it. Epcot is one of my favorite places so we planned two days here anyway. Hopefully the sun will be out when we go back for more fun later this week! 🌐 #shiftyourjanuary #rest #makingmemories #disneyepcot #epcotcenter #epcotfestivalofthearts #epcot2019 #disneyglutenfree #glutenfreeblogger #glutenfreedom #glutenfreefood #glutenfreefollowme #senzaglutine #sansgluten #singluten #nogluten #glutenfree #gfree #glutenfreelife #glutenfreelifestyle #glutenfreeliving #glutenfreegoodness #celiac #celiacsafe #celiacfood #celiacsofig #celiacdisease #celiacawareness #celiacliving #minneceliac
  • I was really nervous when I found out I was having a boy. I grew up with two sisters, I already had a daughter, and I felt like I had no idea what to do with a boy! Well, that all changed the moment my Jack was born! He has a very special place in my heart. He loves trucks and trains and sports, typical boy things. And he’s also the one to initiate “family hugs” and loves to give kisses on the mouth. He sure is something special! #shiftyourjanuary #somethingspecial #princecharming #bippityboppityboutique #disneysprings #disneyfood #senzaglutine #sansgluten #singluten #nogluten #glutenfree #gfree #glutenfreedining #glutenfreelife #glutenfreelifestyle #glutenfreeliving #glutenfreegoodness #celiac #celiacsafe #celiacfood #celiacsofig #celiacdisease #celiacawareness #celiacliving #minneceliac
  • This smile just affirms I’m doing something right. She always says to me, “Mom, you’re the best mom I could ever ask for.” Melt my heart. I’m sure one day she’ll be slamming the door in my face saying I totally embarrass her so for now I’ll just soak this allllllll up! #shiftyourjanuary #affirmation #minnieears #minniemouseparty #cookesofdublin #raglanroad #disneysprings #fishandchips #glutenfreefood #wheatfree #senzaglutine #sansgluten #singluten #nogluten #glutenfree #gfree #glutenfreelife #glutenfreeliving #glutenfreegoodness #celiac #celiacsafe #celiacfood #celiacsofig #celiacdisease #celiacawareness #celiacliving #minneceliac

  • Ok, this is kind of hard for me to post...because Instagram is like a highlight reel, right?! This photo was taken in March 2017 days before I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. My Lucy asked if I’d take a photo because we (baby doll included) had on matching PJs. I love this photo. I mean, just look at that little girl. 😍 Looking back, I can see I was VERY sick. I was at my lowest adult weight, exhausted, extremely irritable, achy, my digestion was a mess. I had no idea what had been lurking in my body for who knows how long. I’ve gained some weight, some gray hair, and some wrinkles since this photo but I’ve also gained the knowledge and power to be healthy and thriving. I feel like I’m myself again. Different, of course, but myself. #shiftyourjanuary #reflection #autoimmunedisease #leopardprint #glutenfreeblogger #glutenfreedom #glutenfreefood #glutenfreefollowme #wheatfree #senzaglutine #sansgluten #singluten #nogluten #glutenfree #gfree #glutenfreedining #glutenfreelife #glutenfreelifestyle #glutenfreeliving #glutenfreegoodness #celiac #celiacsofig #celiacdisease #celiacawareness #celiacliving #minneceliac
