I used one cup of brown sugar only; I find that the apple and dates add sweetness as well to make up for the reduced sugar. Thank you for a very helpful site!

Try using quinoa flakes instead of oatmeal in your favorite sweet recipes. Ana,

You can also buy them at Amazon.com. Kris- I would go ahead and refrigerate the dough for at least an hour. I did not refrigerate my dough and my cookies turned out great, but if the butter is too soft they will spread. Better safe than sorry with gf cookies! :) Melanie- I buy mine at Whole Foods.

Does the dough need to be refrigerated like for other gf cookies? Thanks, Kris Hi Natalie,

I finally found quinoa flakes and I’m excited about this recipe. Does the dough need to be refrigerated like for other gf cookies?

Thanks,
Kris

I have looked everywhere and haven't been able to find them locally. Sounds like another great recipe I can't wait to try! Thanks, Melanie Natalie, where do you find Quinoa flakes?

He is certainly hilarious (as are YOU :), but I don't know about a higher plane! Carrie and SM- These cookies were really good, but I would love to hear the results of getting them a little less sweet. When I tried to add less sugar, they didn't turn out as well and of course, then I don't think Jude would eat them. Let me know. They are crumbly like a lot of oatmeal cookies, but I kinda felt like that is how they should be- so I am going to keep working on this one a little bit. Maybe you guys can help :) It was too good otherwise not to go ahead and post it. Carrie- You know, everyone has said that about those cookies who has made it with a different mix. I really think that because they are egg-less, Pamela's does something magical. Anyway, because of that I have stopped using a mix because it is too hard to tell what went wrong. However, those cookies are awesome. I am going to work on them using a flour mixture and post an alternative since not everyone uses Pamelas. I never knew that one would be confusing like that...it is a learning curve I guess. Oh, and I really do think we should meet sometime since we live so close, don't you think? After all, we could blog about it? lol Kate- LOL. He is certainly hilarious (as are YOU :) , but I don’t know about a higher plane!

I need to make these cookies as well! With you and Kate making all these cookies... I need to get creative and join the crew! ;-) These look delicious! I will have to try them. I was disappointed with the M&M cookies I made last night. They didn't turn out nearly as luscious looking as yours did! I have a finicky oven and the temp wasn't as high as it probably should have been. I also used an all purpose gluten-free mix from GF Pantry, which may not have had the same ingredients at Pamela's! I will have to definitely try these apple quinoa cookies though! I can't go wrong with those flours! Thanks so much for sharing! I love the refried bean warpaint! I'll have to give that tip to my husband Michael who enjoys paintball. That sounds like it would be a great camouflage! I love this post! I need to make these cookies as well!

So yummy. what a great idea. I think I might make these on Friday with my son, we bake every Friday together. Ahhh, the high chair cleaning. I really didn't like that either, ugh!, the simpler the chair the better. And, I never thought about the gluten free thing! How different that would be. Getting up earlier than the children is great. With my daughter going to school so early this year, I have yet to accomplish it! I love the addition of dates in here!!!! So yummy. what a great idea.

Thanks for the WONDERFUL recipes. You can take your highchair to the local self-serve car wash. The pressure from the water rinses all the crevices and it even gets the gunk out of the textured parts too! and around here you can do it for $.25 which is MUCH better than scrubbing. I know several DH's who willingly do this job :) The cookies are perfect for this kind of weather. Thanks for the WONDERFUL recipes.
