My friend Erin of Meaningful Eats also has a great gluten-free molasses cookie recipe. She uses almond butter and some other great ingredients.
Pamela’s Products were some of the very first gluten-free products my mom & I used when diagnosed over 7 years ago. I was impressed from day one with Pamela’s amazing baking and pancake mix. We would have friends over and they would say, “Why are your pancakes so good?!” When I told them they were gluten-free they wouldn’t believe it.
I loved making this mix into simple drop biscuits for a hot bread accompaniment to dinner and even into fluffy waffles on Sunday morning. I quickly fell in love with her other great products including the cookie mixes, pizza mix and shortbreads. I love that she even offers an agave sweetened shortbread cookie. I don’t know about you guys but I wondered if I would ever enjoy the nostalgic goodness of a fig newton like cookie again after being diagnosed with celiac disease.
I am SO thankful that Pamela and her team took on the challenge of creating this old time favorite cookie because they have mastered it! I have had the pleasure of enjoying all four flavors: mission fig, blueberry & fig, strawberry & fig and even raspberry & fig. Each was absolutely delicious! My non-gluten free hubby said, “These are really good!” We both the the soft texture and chewy filling was spot on.
