Why I created this Recipe.

I am always a sucker for a good chocolate chip cookie. If you are a regular around here, you know a chocolate chip cookie is my all time favorite dessert. There really is nothing better to enjoy if you want something sweet. Or at least that is my feelings on the dessert debate.

However, sometimes a butter Oatmeal Cookie sounds good. So wanting to marry the flavors I have been making batches of cookies working on the perfect recipe so I can enjoy both. Many taste testers were used to coming up with the perfect recipe. If you are interested in being used as a taste tester, send message below.😜

How to Make My Gluten Free Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Sea Salt Cookies.

Key to these cookies being over the top good is the Flaky Sea Salt topping. It is always good to have Flaky Sea salt on hand for recipes, especially good on baked goods.

Before starting to assemble the recipe, place your butter out on the counter to come to room temperature.
Once you start beating the butter and sugars together in your electric mixer, the recipe comes together quickly.

You want to place the dough in the refrigerator to firm up before baking. This will help stop your cookies from spreading too thin and overbaking. You want to shoot for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator for baking. This recipe makes 20 cookies. That is a lot of cookies in one batch, so I always bake half, and freeze the other half to have on hand when I have a hankering for a Gluten Free Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Sea Salt Cookie.

When baking the cookies, set the timer for 8 minutes, this allows the cookies to start spreading, then remove your baking sheet and sprinkle each cookie with a pinch of flaky sea salt. Place the baking sheet back into the oven, on the opposite rack. Meaning if it started on the top rack, place back in on the bottom rack. This allows a more even baking process, and perfectly golden crisp cookies.

Cookies can be kept at room temperature in an airtight container for several days to enjoy.
Dough can be kept in the freezer for 3 months, tightly and completely wrapped in plastic wrap.
