I’ve used Creamhill in the past, Bob’s Red Mill, and most recently Gluten Free Oats. Gluten Free Oats I think is my favorite, and they are GIG certified GF, which is a big plus in my book. I would never recommend anyone eat organic oats that were not specifically gluten free, as there is a high risk of cross contamination. I’m glad your friends brother has not reacted (outwardly, although he could certainly be having an internal reaction) but that is not a chance I would ever take or recommend.
Soaking oats is yum! Let me know how you like them!

I like the sounds of fluffier oats! What kind do you use? We’ve always used Cream Hill Estates certified gf oats. But a friend of mine was telling me that organic oats are basically the same as certified gf oats, and cheaper! His brother eats them – and he’s VERY sensitive to gluten. Anyway, food for thought (pardon the pun!).

These cookies look great – I never would have guessed that they weren’t made with the usual fat/sugar/flour recipe!

Maybe I should have called them “kitchen sink cookies” ;)
I’m sure almond flour with cocoa and sweetener would work well. I considered throwing some of that in there as well, but decided that was getting a little silly, even for me.
Hope you are feeling better and got the chicken soup IV all worked out ;)

Just found your site through the GF Cookie Swap…and I’m so excited!

My daughter (age 7) and I both have Celiac. She has Type 1 Diabetes as well (dx age 24 months in 2005).

I’ve also just embarked on weight loss adventure — sigh — this is new territory for me, so I’m looking for all the help I can get.

Thanks!
