Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies with Flax
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup flax seed meal (See Note)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 rolled oats (not instant)
- 1 cup raisins
- 1/4 cup whole flax seeds
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees .
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, flax seed meal, baking soda, baking powder, and kosher salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix the butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla, manually or with a hand mixer.
- Beat until the mixture is fluffy.
- Combine the two mixtures, stirring until the flour is fully incorporated, then add the oats, raisins, and flax seeds.
- Mix well, but don't over mix.
- Prepare a baking sheet with a non-stick baking mat or parchment paper.
- Scoop out heaping tablespoons of cookie dough, and gently form each into a ball, and place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the top of each cookie with whole flax seeds.
- Bake for 11-14 minutes, uncovered, until the cookies turn golden brown (but are still moist in the middle).
- Rotate the baking sheet halfway through to ensure evenly baked cookies.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 3 to 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack or towel to cool.
- If using only one baking sheet, repeat until youve used all of the dough.
