Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Ground flaxseed
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 cups Rolled oats
• 0.75 cup Raisins

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground flaxseed, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined.

Step 6

Stir in the rolled oats and raisins by hand, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look set.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on them for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
