Gluten Free Cookie Recipe: Almond Chestnut Chocolate Chip
I received a quart of Tropical Traditions coconut oil to review and just had to test it out with a gluten free cookie recipe. I ran out of almond flour and added a bit of chestnut flour, but I think you can use all almond meal if you prefer. Great cookie, if you like coconut! – almost like macaroons!

Gluten Free Cookie Recipe: Pear and Walnuts
Wanting to experiment with new gluten-free flours and grains, I picked up some of Bob’s Red Mill organic amaranth flour and amaranth grains to create a new gluten free cookie recipe.

Compared to other grains, it is the richest in lysine and the highest in fiber (3 times wheat). It is also loaded with vitamins and minerals.

Gluten Free Shortbread Cookies + Almond Flour

Chewy Gluten Free Chocolate Cookies with Chocolate Chips
I not only broke down and made chewy gluten free chocolate cookies but made them with chocolate chips to boot, for a double chocolate delight! I wanted to duplicate the cookie recipe used in the Pizookies at BJ’s Restaurant Brewhouse. They serve you a warm cookie freshly baked in a large tin topped with 2 scoops of rich chocolate ice cream. They even add a square of Ghirardelli Chocolate. These cookies are to die for! Fortunately, theirs are made with gluten, or I would be sharing one every time I visited there. Due to their calorie content, I would not eat these cookies often, but they are a definite treat for guests and special events. These gluten free chocolate cookies are soft, chewy and rich with chocolate. Add walnuts or more chocolate chips. It’s up to you! Look for Pizookie recipe in tomorrow’s post!
