Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cranberry Nut Cookies
A Message From Our Nutritionist
These Gluten-free cookies are really easy to make and are on the healthier side. I find most cookie recipes use too much sugar and fat. Treats in moderation!

NUTRITIONIST’S TIP:
These cookies are a perfect gluten free snack. They could also be vegan by replacing regular chocolate chips with a vegan chocolate chip and honey for maple syrup. They don’t last very long without getting stale, maybe 2 days. You could easily substitute another type of nut for the walnuts or sub raisins for the dried cranberries.
