NOTES:
- I use Bob's Red Mill 1:1 Gluten Free Baking Flour with great success. I also use Bob's Red Mill gluten free oats but Quaker gluten free oats work equally well.
- NOTES: Applesauce adds needed moisture and "chewy" mouth feel to gluten free cookies, and you wont taste the applesauce.
- NOTES: I use unsweetened coconut but if all you have is sweetened coconut then use that (same portion) but decrease granulated sugar in recipe by about 1 tablespoon.
