I buy mine from Amazon and have linked to them there. You pick! I’ve tested both with great results. The quick oats are definitely finer, while the rolled oats give a heartier texture. Oats: For the oats, I recommend certified gluten-free oats GF Harvest gluten-free organic rolled oats or GF Harvest gluten-free quick oats.While I prefer creamy peanut butter, you can also make these with crunchy peanut butter if you want more crunch! If you need to avoid peanut butter, you can a nut butter or SunButter. Peanut Butter: I’ve made these with regular Jif or Skippy creamy peanut butter, Jif Natural peanut butter, Skippy Natural peanut butter or Trader Joe’s brand natural peanut butter – all with great results.Butter: If you need dairy-free, you can use Earth Balance buttery sticks, Melt buttery sticks, or I think coconut oil would work just fine, though I haven’t tested that yet since I’m all about the real butter!.Notes on Ingredients and substitutions for Gluten-free Monster Cookies:
I’ve brought them to new moms, playdates, and just last week, to our small group from church. Seriously, it doesn’t get much better than a friend bringing you delicious flourless oatmeal peanut butter cookies and encouraging you to eat them for your health! I even had a friend bring these to me when I was nursing my baby, recommending them as a great snack to keep my energy and blood sugar up between meals. With whole grain gluten-free oats, and protein from the peanut butter, I feel good about having these for a snack. Maybe the person that coined that term was making each cookie really huge too? I make mine approximately palm-sized, but you could go bigger or smaller, just adjust baking time a bit! Why are these called Monster Cookies? Honestly, I have no idea why these have always been called Monster Cookies instead of just gluten-free M&M cookies. Just use gluten-free oats and verify that all other ingredients are gluten-free like they should be, and these are easy as can be! Flourless cookies like these and my flourless chocolate cookies are great options for making when you don’t have any gluten-free flour blends on hand. I made these cookies for many years before needing to go gluten-free, and they were one of the easiest recipes to switch to gluten-free since they don’t have any flour in them. Gluten-free monster cookies are a staple at our house. This easy, flourless oatmeal peanut butter cookie recipe is one that I love to whip up to have on hand for after school treats!
