This easy recipe comes together fast. I should warn you though, that several members of my household independently described these as addictive. So remember, “With great shortbread, comes great responsibility”.
You can find this amazing Gluten-Free Oatmeal Shortbread Recipe at GlutenFree Flavor Full.
This recipe was adapted from Oatmeal Shortbread by Laura at I’m Losing It Here. Laura is not a gluten-free blogger, but I have discovered some delicious recipes on I’m Losing It Here that are either gluten-free or easily adapted. Here are a few of my favorite recipes and the changes I make so they will be gluten free:
Addictive Sweet Potato Burritos – I replace the prepared mustard with 2 teaspoons of dry mustard, use gluten free soy sauce, and use corn or rice tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
Chili Pork Burritos – I omit the step where she coats the meat in flour and just cook the meat plain. I use corn or rice tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
Huevos Rancheros – no changes necessary.
Are you inspired by gluten eating bloggers? (I still haven’t figured out what to call people who eat gluten. Well besides lucky that is, but I digress.) Do you have any favorites that you follow? Are you adventurous and try to make their recipes gluten-free?

HA! Love the responsibility comment
This definitely looks tasty! I've never made shortbread, I but I know I would like this – especially with chocolate on top! haha

I love shortbread, but I've never had an oatmeal version. Sounds yummy. Thanks for linking up.
Haha on these being addictive and eating responsibly–I believe it though!
What brand of butterscotch chips have you found that are gluten free?

I use Hershey's which uses cornstarch. They still have some yucky stuff like partially hydrogenated oils.
Thanks, Alea! I actually think you told me that before … not sure if any of our local stores carry the Hershey brand of butterscotch chips, but I'll look. I remember oatmeal scotchies with fondness.
