Notes

Pro tip: use certified gluten free old-fashioned oats and a 1-to-1 gluten free flour blend for best texture and reliable binding. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days or refrigerate up to 1 week; freeze baked cookies up to 2 months. Dietary swap: for dairy-free, replace butter with a 1:1 plant-based stick-style butter and use dairy-free chocolate chips certified gluten free.
