Gluten-free cookies

Well, the Doc has asked me to go on a gluten-free diet to deal with my inflammation issues. And I can't live without biscuits/cookies, can I? So I am on a hunt for good gluten-free recipes - here goes the first one that I tried. These are already a hit with the family. Chocolate-chip oat cookies 1 1/2 cups oats flour - I always have steel-cut oats handy, so just grind them for 5-10 seconds, to have a rough flour 1/2 cup almond flour 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 80g regular salted butter softened 1/2 cup powdered jaggery 1 tsp vanilla extract 1-3 tbsp milk (if needed) 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips Bake for 10-12 minutes at 180 degreees C.
