Gluten Free Salted Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Cookies

When I saw these cookies on Annie-Eats I know I just HAD to try making these. However, I really wanted to be able to eat them so I decided to make them gluten free. They are of course absolutely incredible! If you don’t need to eat gluten free I suggest you head over to Annie’s blog and get her recipe for them (link is at the bottom of my post).These cookies are a great mixture of rolled oats, chocolate and salt. They have fantastic flavor that will really surprise you. The key to this recipe is to let the batter sit overnight in the fridge. I tried the dough both before I put it in the fridge and after it had sat overnight. The difference was in the blend of flavors. Before it sat overnight the dough was extremely salty, afterward the blend of flavors was perfect!I chose not to sprinkle coarse salt over the top of these cookies. I felt the cookies themselves were salty enough without it. I would highly suggest trying a cookie without the extra salt and seeing if you need it. Make sure you have a flaky sea salt, don’t use Kosher Salt, this will add WAY too much salt flavor. A nice fluer de sel would set it off nicely though.[amd-yrecipe-recipe:123]Source: Adapted from Annies-Eats
