My dear NewBees, your requests have not gone unheard! Many of you have been longing for a gluten-free version of the classic chocolate chip cookie, and I’m thrilled to announce that your wish has been granted. As a food technologist and product developer with vast experience in different companies, I set out to create something truly magical in my kitchen, just for you.
During my time at a gluten-free bakery here in Auckland, where I worked for four fulfilling years, I immersed myself in the world of gluten-free baking. The journey taught me invaluable lessons about the importance of each ingredient used and how they can positively impact our gut health and digestion. Armed with this profound understanding of ingredients’ functionality, I set forth on a mission to create a chocolate chip cookie recipe that is not only gluten-free but also delightfully delicious.

Margarine: 175 grams
Soft brown sugar: 260 grams
Whole fresh eggs: 100 grams
Vanilla extract: 12 grams
Brown rice flour: 168 grams
Tapioca starch: 60 grams
Glutinous rice flour: 75 grams
Potato flakes: 30 grams
Ground desiccated coconut: 30 grams
Fine salt: 1/4 teaspoon
Xanthan gum: 3/4 teaspoon
CMC or Tylose: 1/4 teaspoon
Baking powder: 1/4 teaspoon

Directions:
Begin your baking journey by grinding the desiccated coconut into a fine flour, then sieve it to perfection.
If you can’t find potato flour, no worries! Simply grind the potato flakes in the blender to get that fine flour texture.
Now, let’s mix the dry ingredients together and, of course, sieve them for that extra touch of finesse. Set them aside for the magical moment.
In your mixing bowl, let the butter take center stage, and beat it with the beater attachment for 2-3 minutes at medium speed.
Add the delightful brown sugar and continue beating for another 1-2 minutes until the mixture turns light and creamy, enticing your senses.
Slowly add the whole fresh eggs, one at a time, while continuing to mix at a gentle pace. Witness the perfect harmony forming.
Add the delightful vanilla extract and mix again for a minute, inviting a heavenly aroma into your kitchen.
Now, it’s time for the grand moment – add all the dry ingredients and mix on the lowest speed until a doughy masterpiece comes together.
And here comes the star – add half of those heavenly dark chocolate chips and mix for another minute until they dance gracefully within the dough.
Use a small ice cream scooper to shape your cookie dreams, each weighing around 30 to 32 grams, ensuring perfect portions every time.
Roll the dough in your palms to create charmingly round shapes – a touch of love in every cookie!
Sprinkle a few more dark chocolate chips on top, and with a gentle touch, flatten each cookie slightly to unleash their full potential.
Lay your cookie dreams on a lined baking tray, giving them space to breathe and grow into deliciousness.
Bake them in a preheated oven at 180°C for 9 to 10 minutes – the magic happens when the sides turn a light brown color, and the bottoms blush with a golden hue.
Now, show your cookies some tender love by letting them cool on wire racks, allowing their flavors to settle and meld perfectly.
Finally, store these enchanting gluten-free chocolate chip cookies in a closed dry container, preserving their goodness for as long as you can resist their tempting allure.
Now, I hope this gluten-free chocolate chip cookie recipe brings as much joy to your hearts as it did to mine in creating it. Each ingredient has been chosen with care, not just for its taste and texture but for the nourishing benefits it bestows upon us.
