Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies {Gluten Free}

We have been experimenting with gluten free foods in our house this week and my hubby made this incredible cookie recipe. I would never guess that these were gluten free, they taste great and the texture is like any other chewy oatmeal cookie! You'll likely need to stock up on a few gluten free pantry items but it's worth it if you are eating gluten free, plus you'll be able to make many batches of these cookies. You can also use regular oats, all purpose flour and Corn Flakes if gluten free is not needed. They are not exactly low calorie but they are loaded with fiber and a very tasty treat!

Recipe: (makes 24-28 cookies)
Ingredients
1 cup Gluten-Free all-purpose flour mix
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups gluten free corn flakes, smashed before you measure
2 tablespoons flax meal
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup gluten-free oats
1 packed cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 stick unsalted butter (8 Tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs room temperature

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350'F.
1. Whisk first 8 ingredients, through coconut, together in a large bowl.
2. In a large stand mixer blend sugar, butter, salt, vanilla and eggs until well combined ~1 minute. Add the dry ingredient mix 1 cup at a time to the wet ingredients while the mixer is on low speed until combined. Don't over mix
3. Scoop cookies using a small kitchen scoop or spoon onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Space them out so they won't touch as they bake. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown around the edges, be careful not to overcook.
