Substituted the flour and oat flour with GF self raising flour. Left out the soda and baking powder. Replaced all the sugar with light brown.

They didn’t spread much, needed squashing during the bake, and came out a little dry/powdery. They did however rise the right amount, and they are absolutely delicious! I think the GF flour is a lot more absorbent and made the dough too robust. I think it needs a little more egg and/or butter when using GF flour. Thanks for the recipe! Looking forward to tweaking and trying again.

These are delicious but mine spread like crazy in the oven. :( Next time I will try refridgerating the batter before baking. Hopefully that was the issue.

Did I post before when I made these with butter and some with dark chocolate, and some with raisins? I also used 2/3 cup whole wheat flour instead of 1/3 c of whole wheat and 1/3 cup of oat flour.
Turned out great. They were not flat.

I just made them again, same flour ingredients, this time with coconut oil. They were flat, which I don’t mind either! And in some of them I put cranberries and white chocolate.

My friends think I rock! Thanks Kate!

If you sub all purpose gluten free flour for the wheat flour should you use less or no baking soda or baking powder as the all purpose has that in it.

In reply to Tracy Sweet. Hi Tracy, sorry for my delay. Using coconut oil instead of butter could have impacted your results.

I tried it and it did NOT work – I went with the coconut oil instead – my cookies were quite flat – is that right? I used GF flour

In reply to Tracy. Thank you, Tracy! I don't know if earth balance will work without trying it myself. Sorry!

Hi Kate – congrats on the baby – can I use earth balance instead of coconut oil in the cookies?
