Both of our families LOVE cookies. This recipe is a cookie staple. The cookie that Grandma made, and the cookie that Great Grandma made. Everyone needs a little tradition in their life. Pour a glass of milk and get ready to ‘dunk’. These cookies are amazing!

With the addition of gluten-free rice cereal, coconut and oats, these delicious cookies are full of texture. They are soft to bite and crispy to chew. The perfect combo for a cookie. This is the cookie to please anyone in every crowd.

We promise again that this recipe is easy to follow. It doesn’t require any extra fridge or freezing time and fresh cookies can be enjoyed within a half hour. The perfect recipe to let the kids help mix and measure ingredients. Ha!… the perfect recipe to work on the home school math and fractions 🙂 Pull out your ingredients and lets go!

These cookies are so delicious on their own or simply add chocolate chips or raisins to create another traditional cookie – Oatmeal Raisin, or Oatmeal Chocolate Chip!

To create a flat cookie and not a ’round ball’, use a fork and push the raw cookie dough down a bit. Do not push them too skinny, just enough to level the tops flat. The cookie should be approximately 1 cm thick going into the oven.

Simply then into the oven. That’s all there is to it. The cookie jar will be empty before you know it!
