Hodgson Mill

I'm on day 11 of gluten-free and was lamenting Oreos earlier today. I skeptically bought my first gluten-free baking mix - Hodgson Mill Cookie Dough. And now I know that all's right with the world. I CAN DO THIS! I think it was actually yummier than regular dough!

What kind of cookies did you make? I'm trying to prepare myself for the holidays. I usually make lots of cookies with my kids. :(

What kind of cookies did you make? I'm trying to prepare myself for the holidays. I usually make lots of cookies with my kids. :(

I haven't tried any cookie mixes, although I was impressed with Gluten-Free Pantry's truffle brownie mix (even more awesome with a few tbsp of peanut butter swirled into the batter before baking) and all-purpose flour (used to successfully replace gluteny flour in a standard cranberry-nut bread recipe).

So far I've done my gluten-free cookies from scratch with mostly good results. The best results were from the 36-Hour Chocolate Chip cookie recipe on the Open Original Shared Link blog. The recipe made a HUGE batch and my gluten-eating family and friends scarfed them down. This year the same bloggers are posting a new gluten-free cookie recipe every weekday in December up until the 23rd. Here's the first post for Jam Tarts and a list of what they'll be posting later in the month: Open Original Shared Link

Long story short: you can totally still make all sorts of cookies with your kids. Have fun, good luck, and happy holidays!

TPT, I used Hodgson Mills Cookie Mix and added chocolate chips. They were in my local Kroger and were less than $2.50 for a box that made two dozen decent-sized cookies.

I also figure that there are other cookies that I grew up with that I could make if I get the gluten-free version of the cereals to make them....like Rice Crispy treats and those cute wreaths made of Corn Flakes.

I haven't seen those yet in my store but I know I've seen other Hodgson Mill products. I've had great success making the Betty Crocker gluten-free chocolate chip cookies. And you can also make a really good peanut butter cookie without even buying any special flours: Open Original Shared Link

Easiest peanut butter cookies in the world.

1 cup peanut butter

1 cup sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1 egg

dash of salt

mix these few ingredients together. roll into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet. flatten cookies with fingers or bottom of a glass whatever works.. bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes until they start to brown on the edges. Remove from oven and COOL THEM COMPLETELY ON THE COOKIE SHEET so they don't crumble. Once they are completely cooled they are the best peanut butter cookies I've ever had. My non gluten free son loved them too.

Cookies? Forget that. Make chocolate truffles!

Other great holiday goodies that are naturally gluten-free are stuffed dates, pecan turtles, and fudge.

Thanks for the review! I just added this book to my Amazon wish list (as if I need another gluten-free cookbook). Let us know what other awesome things you bake from recipes in this book.

One thing I determined with the cookies is that their recipe calls for more of their flour mix than my regular 'gluten' cookie recipe calls for and they were a bit floury. Next time I'm going to cut the flour mix by 1/2 cup and see if that helps. They were awesome but not like my 'pre-gluten cookies' and maybe that's not possible to copy them but I'm going to try!!! :)

      Bloodwork Help for my Teen

      By Sarah Marie · Posted

      Is it worth it to remove gluten before they potentially do an endoscopy & biopsy? I thought I read it’s best to be eating gluten for 3 months prior to it. So hoping they have a cancellation and call us in sooner.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Aleda D · Posted

      Thank you for the warning. I get blood tests twice a year to check where I stand with the vitamins I regularly take, so I appreciate the extra reminder. I know some vitamins don’t build up but now I will watch the B6 for sure.

      High dosage of B12 gave me life.

      By trents · Posted

      I think you would do well to take a high potency B-complex such that you get more balanced dosage across the spectrum of B vitamins. They work in concert.

      Around 5 years ago I visited Tokyo, and luckily had my sister in law with me who is from there, otherwise it would have been more difficult. The bottom line is that there are tons of naturally gluten-free food options there, but you need to be able to communicate your needs to restaurant staff. Here is a gluten-free restaurant card for American visitors in Tokyo. It includes a request for a gluten-free meal and mentions common gluten-containing ingredients to avoid, like soy sauce and miso. English: Thank you. Japanese:   You can also download the Google Translate app, and besides being able to help you speak with people there about this, it has a camera app that translates Japanese text to English in your camera, so you can use it when shopping in a supermarket.
