Notes
- Storage: These gluten free monster cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or covered in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- Freezing: They can also be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months in an airtight container. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
- Oats: Old-fashioned oats will give you the best texture. Quick cooking oats can be too fine and dusty in texture. For a chewier cookie I recommend using old fashioned oats.
