Cookies for Turkey Day

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I will be spending it with my In-laws.  My Mother-in-law is now gluten free.  Most of the desserts she makes include flour, so she can't eat them, so I wanted to make something special for her. 

I looked around online and saw a lot of peanut butter cookie recipes which were gluten free.  This recipe is a hybrid of several and makes a small batch. Perfect!

These are not super sweet so they are great after a heavy meal or with a cup of coffee for breakfast.  What?  Cookies for breakfast?  Hey, you only live once!


Gluten Free Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies
Make about a dozen cookies
1-1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1/8 cup white sugar
1/8 cup turbinado sugar
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 large egg
2 tablespoon soft butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
Dash salt
1/8 cup chocolate chips
1/8 cup butterscotch chips

Preheat oven to 350F. 
Combine all ingredient except chips & blend well. 

Add chips and blend again until chips are evenly dispersed into dough. 

Using a cookie scoop, scoop out cookies onto parchment lined cookie sheet.

Bake approximately 12 to 15 minutes.

Allow cookies to cool then devour!

Here they are, all dressed up for their trip tomorrow.
