PRODUCT REVIEW - Glenny's GF Oatmeal Cookies

I came across these cookies at the Fairway this past weekend, and at first I walked right by. Usually I prefer to make my own cookies at home, the prepackaged ones are always a ripoff at $5 for 6 cookies.  These were a little better, $4 for 10 cookies. So I took a gamble. Let me introduce you to Glenny's Gluten Free Oatmeal Cookies.


So glad I did!! These cookies are de-lic-ious! They're soft, chewy, oatmeal-y, raisin-y, and honestly don't taste like they are gluten free. Pop these in the microwave or toaster oven for a few seconds, and I bet it would be like Grandma paid you a visit.

Only downside: they're pretty small. So it's like 8 cookies not 10. Whatever. They are worth it.

Now, my newest endeavour will be to recreate these cookies at home. Oats have been a controversial gluten free topic. Oats themselves do not contain gluten, but the vast majority of oats and facilities that process oats also process wheat, so cross contamination is a huge issue. I know Bob's Red Mill makes Gluten Free Oats, so that'll work nicely. Look for that recipe soon!

  1. these cookies were my first gluten free cookie and i LOVE them. i had to go off gluten the week before thanksgiving so in an attempt to still have sweets after dinner on short notice my grandmother bought me two boxes of these! i think i would eat them even if i could go back to my old gluten ways!

    i would love a recipe to make them at home. i have only tried gf cookies once and it was a huge failure. i am a bit scared to try again without a recipe.
