🍇Key Ingredients

The ingredients for these cookies are simple and wholesome.

1. Raisins- choose nice juicy ones for the best raisin cookie experience!
2. Oatmeal- You can choose chunkier rolled oats, or finer oats. It doesn't really matter, they'll taste great either way
3. Brown Sugar- I like to use a simple soft brown sugar. You can substitute with other sugars if you prefer.
4. Plain (all purpose) flour- You can also choose wholemeal, spelt or gluten free flour if you wish!
5. Linseed/Flaxseed- this is the egg substitute and helps to bind. Also a great source of Omegas! Grind your own, or buy pre-milled.

👩‍🍳How-To

• Mix up the milled flaxseed/linseed with some water and leave to expand- this makes it into a gel that ensures your cookies will stay together.
• In a bowl, add the sugar, oil, cinnamon and vanilla and mix well to combine.

• Now add in the flour, salt and baking powder and mix gently.
• Add in the oats, and mix.
• Finally add in the raisins and mix well. If you want chewier cookies, put in the fridge for 15 minutes to cool.
• Now, using a spoon, plop out spoonfuls of the cookie mix onto a cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
