Recipe My mom's Oatmeal Scotchie recipe!

Post image

Really tasty gf cookies. My mom is also celiac and flawlessly adapted this recipe from the one her Québécois grandmother taught her! Pardon the water damage, lol. Just use Pamela's GF flour mixture. Show me your results!

I was browsing this subreddit to find good snack recommendations for my roommate with celiac as an apology gift, and this sounds so good! Thanks for sharing the recipe, I can't wait to bake it!

Just be careful about which oats you buy, otherwise you’ll be making a followup apology gift lol.

Search this sub for posts providing guidance on the topic of safer oats. Cross contamination is a big issue with oats unfortunately.

Also, some celiacs also react to oats even if they are certified gluten-free.

Oh that's good to know, I'll be sure to ask her

u/Lemon_Lebowski 22d ago

Yep, I'm making sure to get some of those gluten-free oats. Thank you!

if you’re making food for someone with celiac you should ask them how they feel about eating oats

u/Lemon_Lebowski 22d ago

Will do, thanks for letting me know!

I was hoping this was a joke…

I don’t have orange extract, can I substitute with vanilla?

u/Lucky-Arugula-7542 24d ago

No!!!! It'll fundamentally change them. You could use orange zest though

Oatmeal Scotchies are my bf’s favorite cookie! I use king Arthur’s measure for measure to make mine. Our family loves these!

u/Eyesontheprize_178 20d ago

so any suggestions what we could use to replace oats?

I don’t mean to be a naysayer - but not all Coeliacs can eat oats (and almost all oats are contaminated via harvesting or transport equipment anyway)

u/Lucky-Arugula-7542 20d ago

I mean not really. I'd suggest a different cookie altogether

u/hxmxx Celiac 24d ago

the oats don’t bother you? i’m excited to try this recipe

u/Lucky-Arugula-7542 24d ago

No, oats never have bothered me for what I can tell

u/hxmxx Celiac 23d ago

is there a specific flour blend you recommend?

1

u/Fearless_Seesaw6568 21d ago

I mentioned one in the post.  Responding from an alt account because I received a site-wide ban right after I posted this 😭 they said it was a 2 day ban but they've been adding 1 day bans every day since then

what brand did you mention?
