Orange Marmalade Oatmeal Cookies

These orange marmalade oatmeal cookies are naturally gluten-free, dairy-free (ghee and coconut oil) and egg-free.  They are highly addictive and super easy to make from scratch.

Gluten-free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free Orange Marmalade Cookies

It’s not something we make often, but I wanted to make a gluten-free Chicken L’Orange recipe as a special treat for Christmas dinner.  

So I found gluten-free marmalade (Bonne Maman) and the recipe only required two tablespoons. So what was I going to do with the rest of it?  I’m not a huge fan of marmalade on it’s own so I wouldn’t really like it on toast.  

And you know I hate to waste food.  So I thought why not try to bake something with it.  To sweeten up the marmalade and not let it just go to waste.

I thought why don’t I adapt my recipe for cranberry oatmeal cookies (in my ecookbook) into some type of orange marmalade oatmeal cookies.  And on the first try they were delicious.  I could have devoured them all.  You are going to love them!

These cookies are made with gluten-free orange marmalade, ghee (you can use a butter substitute or vegan butter instead), and coconut oil.

Sugar is usually sprayed with glyphosate, so we try to keep it clean and use an organic brand. Wholesome Sweet is a great brand that sells organic fair trade raw cane sugar.

For the gluten-free flour we use a blend of almond flour, coconut flour and potato starch. Let’s Do… Organic makes a great unsweetened flaked coconut.

As for the certified gluten-free oats, try to also find an organic brand as well. You want them to be certified gluten-free because oats are usually grown next to wheat and there is potential for cross-contamination. Also, they started spraying glyphosate (Round-up) on oats as a desiccant to dry them out before harvesting. So there is a lot of it on them and so you’ll be better off finding an organic brand.
