These are my oldest son’s all-time favorite cookies … and I love them too! When I was first diagnosed with Celiac, I removed oats from my diet per the recommendation of my physician in order to see if I was intolerant to them as well. The problem is, I LOVE OATS. After two years, I reintroduced them and I tolerate them well. And so, I made these with gluten-free oats and they turned out amazing.
