1 1/4 cups gluten-free rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  4. Line 2 baking sheets with a parchment paper or non-stick spray.
  5. Roll dough into 2-inch balls, and press to flatten on the cookie sheet (there should be around 8 cookies total).

  7. Cool cookies on a rack, and store leftovers in an airtight container.
