These Gluten Free Monster Cookies are the perfect giant, chewy cookies that your family will devour. Oats, peanut butter, chocolate chips and chocolate candies – these cookies are absolutely loaded with all your favorite things but are gluten free!

What You Need:
- Gluten Free 1 to 1 Flour – I use Bob’s Red Mill
- Gluten Free Oats – Bob’s Red Mill
- Butter – room temp
- Brown Sugar
- Granulated Sugar
- Vanilla Extract
- Salt
- Baking Soda
- Baking Powder
- Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips – we love Enjoy Life, they are both gluten and dairy free
- Candy Coated Chocolates – I used Unreal candies (gluten free, but not gluten free certified)
- Creamy Peanut Butter
- Eggs

Let’s Make Monster Cookies:
- Pre-heat oven to 350’F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper
- In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine
- In a separate mixing bowl, add the brown sugar, granulated sugar and softened butter. Beat with an electric mixer until it is light and creamy (2-3 minutes)
- Add the room temperature eggs, vanilla extract and peanut butter to the sugar/butter mixture and beat again until smooth and creamy (may have to pause and scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula)
- Mix in the flour/oat mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir to combine completely and then stir in the candy coated chocolates and chocolate chips
- Scoop out the dough with a 1/4 cup measuring cup and roll into balls (these are big ol’ monster cookies) and place onto the lined baking sheet. Make sure you leave plenty of room for them to spread out
- Bake for 17-20 minutes (can vary depending on altitude)
- Once done, remove from oven and let cool on a cooling rack. You can gently press more candies in the top while they are still warm for a nicer presentation
