FAQ (Ask A Dietitian!)
1. How do gluten-free and dairy-free cookies taste compared to traditional cookies?
In general, gluten free and dairy free cookies will taste different than the traditional recipe. However, the taste of gluten-free and dairy-free cookies can be enjoyable and satisfying, especially when made with high-quality ingredients and a well-crafted recipe.
Gluten-free and dairy-free cookies remain delicious, often relying on sugar for sweetness since it contains neither gluten nor dairy.
2. Can I use alternative sweeteners like maple syrup or coconut sugar in gluten-free and dairy-free cookie recipes?
Yes, alternative sweeteners like maple syrup or coconut sugar can be used in a gluten free dairy free cookie recipe. These sweeteners and others, such as honey, agave, stevia, and monk fruit, provide sweetness and their own unique flavor.
Just keep in mind that different sweeteners may have varying levels of sweetness and moisture content, so you might need to adjust the proportions of other ingredients in the recipe accordingly.
Tips for Making Gluten-Free Cookies using Gluten-Free Flour
Gluten-free flour blends can be used in a 1:1 ratio for all-purpose flour. You can beat the batter more, because gluten-free flour has less structure than all-purpose flour, beating the batter longer and more vigorously can help the dough obtain structure.
You may notice you need to bake the cookies a bit longer with gluten-free flour vs all-purpose flour.
Gluten-free flour-baked cookies will look and taste different. This is okay! They are two different flours and these cookies will still taste delicious.
Tips for Making Dairy-Free Cookies
Making Dairy Free cookies can occur in a variety of ways. For example, you can use coconut oil, vegan butter, nut butter, or other fats rather than baking with butter.
You can even make a dairy-free and vegan cookie recipe by keeping the dough egg-free. Swap the egg for flax or chia seed “eggs” by mixing 1 tbsp ground flax or chia seeds with 3 tbsp of water.

Cowboy Caviar is sometimes also called Texas caviar or cowboy dip. I love to bring it to potlucks with a big ole bag of corn tortilla chips.
Dietitian tip, this is also a cowboy caviar salad.
Cowboy Caviar Ingredients
Lentils – I always make Cowboy Caviar using at least 2 different legumes. Usually, I use 2 different-sized legumes, but for this recipe, I decided to celebrate the new year by swapping in Lentils.
Beans – I used black beans
Sweet Corn – option to use canned, fresh, or frozen corn
Peppers – options to use green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, or red bell peppers.
Spice tip: You can completely omit the jalapeno or only add 1 to reduce the heat. However, if you want the dish super spicy, don’t remove the ribs or seeds of the jalapeno. This is where most of the jalapenos’ heat comes from.
Onions – shallots, white, sweet, yellow, or red onions work well.
Herbs – I decided to use parsley
Herb Tip: Consider swapping the parsley with cilantro or any other herb you love!
Optional ingredients –avocado, tomatoes, black eye peas, or spicy peppers
Cowboy Caviar Dressing Recipe
I like to keep this dressing simple with only five ingredients – oil, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper.
Use a flavorful olive oil. There is no actual cooking in this recipe, so there is no need for the extra virgin stuff. For the vinegar, I used a lovely lemon champagne vinegar on hand. You could use white balsamic, champagne, or red wine vinegar, or add some freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice.
Ever been to one of those fancy olive oil and vinegar shops? Those are perfect for a recipe like this. I bought a raspberry white balsamic vinegar that, if I still had it, would have tasted divine in this dish!
Or keep it simple with a store-bought or homemade Italian dressing.
How To Make Cowboy Caviar
First, chop all your veggies. Then pour them in a large bowl. I try to keep my veggie pieces roughly the size of a black bean.
Next, Mix! Add all the dressing ingredients to a bowl or mason jar, then whisk or shake! Then pour the salad dressing over your veggies and mix!
Finally, serve!
How To Serve This Recipe
Some options for serving this yummy dish include:
In an Endive (lettuce) cup
With Crackers or Chips
As a fun and creative Bruschetta
Right out of a bowl!
I enjoy using ramekins as small serving bowls as a side dish with dinner.
Sharper Nutrition Fix: Lentils
Lentils are also inexpensive, healthy, environmentally friendly, and easy to make! It’s no surprise that lentils are a major food source throughout the Americas, Caribbean, and Mediterranean regions.
Let’s dive a little deeper, shall we!?
Why You Will Love Making This Recipe with Lentils
Lentils are an all-star flexitarian staple I always keep on hand in my pantry.
Inexpensive
Lentils only cost about $1.50 for a 16oz bag at Kroger, a local grocery store in Huntsville. Lentils are available for purchase at most grocery stores. Because lentils do not take long to cook, I recommend purchasing dried lentils to get the most bang for your buck!
Healthy
Lentils are high in fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals. Combine lentils with a whole grain, and you have a complete protein source with all nine essential amino acids.
Fun fact: Populations with the greatest lentil consumption also have the lowest rates of cancer, specifically breast and colorectal.
Good for the Environment
Lentils are green, and I don’t mean the color! Lentils work with bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen to useful ammonia or nitrates. They also improve soil fertility and are highly water-efficient.
Quick and Easy
Did you know that dried lentils are quick to whip up? Just 15 minutes on the stove, and you are good to go! Dried Lentils are much quicker to cook than dried beans.
Versatile
You will find many cowboy caviar recipes on the internet. For example, Pioneer Woman Cowboy Caviar uses black-eyed peas instead of lentils. Other recipes include avocado whereas my cowboy salad recipe does not include it. You can get creative with flavors or just use what you have on hand!
Like This Recipe? Try These Flexitarian Dishes, Too!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn, black beans, cooked lentils, jalapeno, bell pepper, red pepper, shallots, and parsley.
Make The Dressing
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
Combine and Toss
Pour salad dressing overtop of your veggies. Gently toss everything together until well combined, making sure the dressing coats all the ingredients evenly.
Adjust Seasoning and Serve
Before serving, give the cowboy caviar a good stir. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Serve the cowboy caviar as a dip with tortilla chips or as a side salad. It also works well as a topping for grilled chicken or fish.

Ingredients
unsalted butter, melted
light brown sugar, packed
eggs
vanilla extract
all-purpose flour
baking powder
kosher salt
white chocolate chips or chunks
1 cup frozen raspberries
Step – By Step Instructions
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare wet ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar. Stir until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Mix wet and dry ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Add mix-ins
Fold in the white chocolate chips or chunks until evenly distributed in the batter.
Pour and spread batter
Gently fold in the fresh raspberries. Be careful not to overmix to avoid crushing the raspberries.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).
Check the blondies at ~25min for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center, if it comes out with batter, continue to bake checking every 5min or so with the same process.
Adjust for pan size (if needed)
If using a 9×13 inch pan, bake at the same temperature, but for 25-30min.
Cool and cut
Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into squares or bars.
More About Checking For Doneness
To check the doneness of blondies using a toothpick, follow these steps:
Insert Toothpick: Insert a clean toothpick into the center of the blondies. Aim for the center or a spot that seems representative of the overall doneness.
Observe Moisture: Pull out the toothpick and observe its condition. If it comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging to it, it indicates that the blondies are done.
No Wet Batter: Ensure that there is no wet batter sticking to the toothpick. If there are only moist crumbs, it suggests that the blondies are properly baked.
Repeat if Necessary: If the toothpick comes out with any wet batter stuck to it, continue baking for a few more minutes, and then repeat the toothpick test until you get the desired result.
Remember that overbaking can result in dry blondies, so it’s crucial to find the right balance where the toothpick comes out with moist crumbs but not wet batter. This method helps ensure that the blondies are fully baked while maintaining a soft and chewy texture.
Variations
I love a recipe that can be made into numerous variations depending on my mood and tastes!
Raspberry Blondies: Make these Raspberry White Chocolate Blondies raspberry blondies by omitting the white chocolate chips. Make them extra raspberry by swirling in raspberry jam just before baking.
Lemon White Chocolate: Omit the raspberries, add 1 tbsp lemon zest directly into the batter, and swap the vanilla extract for lemon juice.
Chocolate Chip Blondies: For the add-ins, use chocolate chunks or chips.
Raspberry Chocolate: Omit the white chocolate chips and use dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips for a chocolate raspberry blondies experience.
FAQ (Ask a Dietitian!)
What is the difference between a blondie and a brownie?
Blondies are basically brownies but instead of using cocoa powder or chocolate, the recipe uses brown sugar and vanilla to create a sweet and decadent dessert bar.
Can I use fresh raspberries?
Yes, fresh raspberries work fine in this recipe, especially during the raspberry season! However, when it is not raspberry season, I prefer to use frozen.
Plus, you don’t have to be as delicate when folding the raspberries into the batter.
Can I use a 9×13-inch pan?
You can use a 9×13 inch baking pan or 9×9 inch depending on how thick you want your blondies, or based on what you have on hand. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly.
9×13 inch pan: Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).
9×9 inch pan: Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).
