I entered my very first baking contest with this recipe for Gluten Free Hemp Chia Seed Oatmeal Cookies and WON!
This is a terrific gluten free version of one of my favourite oatmeal cookie recipes. I used special ground gluten free flour I bought at a whole foods market.
The hemp and chia seed add sensational flavour and a nice crunch to these Gluten Free Oatmeal Cookies.

Hi Jen, I'm guessing its the variety of flour you are using. I would simply reduce the amount of flour by 1/4 cup.
