A gluten-free flour blend to start. (I used this blend by Bob’s Red Mill.)
Oat flour as well. It’s important to make sure it is labeled gluten-free.
Unsalted butter to soften things up.
Cane sugar (or your regular white sugar) because these cookies wouldn’t be sweet without it!
An egg for texture.
Baking powder, baking soda, vanilla extract, and salt.
Semi-sweet chocolate chips! These are naturally the most popular ingredient in milk chocolate chip cookie recipes. How can anyone resist?

How to make Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies:
Step 1: Prepare
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2: Mix the dry ingredients
Mix all the dry ingredients – both types of flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3: Mix the wet ingredients
In a separate bowl, beat the butter with sugar. Add egg and vanilla.
Step 4: Combine the dough and refrigerate
Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, and mix well. Add chocolate chips. Place the dough into the fridge for about 30 minutes.
Step 5: Roll and prepare to bake
Make balls with your hands and flatten them slightly. Place them on a baking sheet, leaving some space between cookies.
Step 6: Bake and enjoy
Bake for about 10-12 minutes until they get lightly golden. Let it cool and enjoy!
Expert Tips:
- Allow eggs and butter to come to room temperature before incorporating them into the dough for a smoother blend.
- Flatten the cookie dough balls slightly before baking to ensure even cooking and a nice cookie shape.
- Gluten-free cookies can go from undercooked to overcooked quickly. Keep a close eye on them in the oven
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps them set.
- Just because it doesn’t have gluten doesn’t mean that gluten-free cookie dough is safe to eat raw.
Recipe FAQs
You can store these cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
To make these cookies crispier, you can bake them for 2 minutes longer in the oven. If you bake them for 10-12 minutes, they will have crisp edges and a soft middle.
Crumbly cookies can result from overmixing the dough or using too much flour. Follow the recipe precisely for best results.
Chilling the dough before baking helps prevent excessive spreading. Also, ensure your baking sheet is cool before placing the next batch into the oven.
