Gluten Free Snickerdoodles

Melissa King 235 Comments

Gluten Free Snickerdoodles.  I have had a lot of requests for a cleaner version of the snickerdoodle.  So when Wholesome Sweeteners sent me a sample of all their products, I knew that now was the time to make a healthy gluten free snickerdoodle.

These gluten free snickerdoodles came out really good!

These came out really good!  Between my husband and older daughter, they didn’t last long!  I got about 12 cookies in my batch.  They should last a week or so, but if you plan on keeping them longer, you can refrigerate or even freeze them.

    To get the oat flour, I just used my Vitamix to grind up rolled oats into a flour. If you do that, make sure the rolled oats you buy are gluten free. Some are produced in factories that also produce wheat.

    Apple Pie Larabars.  It’s been a while since I have posted a larabar recipe.  I had several people request the apple pie larabar flavor, so here you go.  I hope you enjoy these homemade apple larabars.

    My husband really enjoyed these.  I was not a huge fan myself.  Mostly because I am obsessed with the Coconut Cream Larabars.

    That just means there will be more for him and my daughter to share. 🙂  These are just as easy to make as all the others.  I cut  mine in squares, but you can do bars or roll them into balls as well.

    These homemade larabars travel great too.  Perfect for on the go.  I always have some in my purse just in case.

    Apple Cinnamon Granola (No Refined Sugar)

    Apple Cinnamon Granola.  For me, cold cereal just doesn’t cut it.  Who has ever had a bowl of cereal that kept them full until lunchtime?  Um, no one!  I am usually starving an hour later!

    That is why I love homemade granola.  Homemade granola keeps me full until lunchtime.  Apple and cinnamon go so perfectly well together too.  This apple cinnamon homemade granola is one of my favorite recipes.  Homemade Apple Cinnamon Granola  is great as a snack, over yogurt or as a cereal.

    I usually eat mine with fresh berries and homemade almond milk .  This granola would also be good sprinkled over some vegan yogurt.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
