Almost everyone likes cookies and biscuits, but what do you do if you have to eat gluten-free? Luckily, there are many alternatives to grains containing gluten that are just as suitable for preparing small treats. Gluten-free cookies taste just as good and are a tasty addition to tea or coffee. Today we present a quick and delicious recipe for gluten-free oatmeal cookies with peanut butter and cocoa that are made completely without baking.
Are gluten-free cookies with oats actually gluten-free?
As a rule, regular oatmeal is not considered gluten-free. However, if oats are grown in a controlled manner and free of gluten, then the flakes can be described as gluten-free. These are offered as gluten-free oat flakes and can be found in well-stocked supermarkets and organic shops. So if you have gluten intolerance, you can replace the classic oatmeal with this alternative.
