Recipe information

  • Yield

    makes 24 2 1/2-inch cookies

Ingredients

1/2 cup dairy-free, soy-free vegetable shortening
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon Ener-G egg replacer mixed with 1 tablespoon rice milk
1 1/4 cups Basic Gluten-Free Flour Mix (page 19)
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons rice milk
1 cup gluten-free old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup dairy-free, soy-free chocolate chips
1/2 cup raisins

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Step 2

    In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the shortening, granulated sugar, and brown sugar, mixing on medium speed for about 1 minute. Add the vanilla and egg replacer and mix for 20 seconds.

    Step 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour mix, xanthan gum, baking soda, and salt.

    Step 4

    Add the flour mixture to the mixer in three batches, mixing on low speed, alternating with the rice milk.

    Step 5

    Add the oats, chocolate chips, and raisins. Mix on the lowest possible speed until just combined. Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to finish blending, if necessary.

    Step 6

    Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the baking sheets, spacing them 3 inches apart. Bake for 12 minutes in the center of the oven, or until lightly golden around the edges. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring to a cooling rack.
