FLAX OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES



Flax Oatmeal Raisin Cookies image

This recipe was provided to me by the Red Square Bakery. These cookies are very healthy for you. You can buy flax at most natural foods stores. Grind it fresh in a coffee grinder or a food processor. Don't grind it too fine, because you want some roughage and you don't want to overheat the oils in the flax seed.

CLASSIC OATMEAL-RAISIN COOKIES



Classic Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies image

Full of nubby oats and plenty of sweet raisins, these lightly spiced cookies are pleasingly chewy in the center and crisp around the edges, with a hint of butterscotch from the dark brown sugar. They keep really well, so you can make them up to a week in advance and store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They're also great for mailing when a package of cookies is in order.

Time 45m

Yield 3 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup/227 grams (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, more for pans
1 cup/200 grams dark brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup/66 grams granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon/15 milliliters vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups/187 grams all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom or ground ginger
3 cups/270 grams rolled oats (not instant)
1 1/2 cups/225 grams raisins

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two large cookie sheets, or line them with parchment paper or reusable silicone liners.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat butter in a large bowl until creamy. Add brown and granulated sugars, then beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Then, beat in vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix together the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom. Set mixer on low speed, and beat flour mixture into the butter mixture. Stir in oats and raisins.
  • Spoon out dough by large tablespoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets, leaving at least 2 inches between each cookie.
  • Bake until cookie edges turn golden brown, about 9 to 13 minutes. Centers will still be quite soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool. Cool completely on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use Old-Fashioned Oats: For the best texture and flavor, use old-fashioned oats instead of quick-cooking or instant oats.
  • Chill the Dough Before Baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough, so mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Combination of Sugars: Using a combination of granulated sugar and brown sugar gives the cookies a chewy texture and a rich flavor.
  • Add Flaxseed for a Nutritional Boost: Adding flaxseed to the cookies is a great way to boost their nutritional value and add a nutty flavor.
  • Don't Overbake the Cookies: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly, so bake them just until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.

Conclusion:

These oatmeal raisin cookies with flaxseed are a delicious and nutritious snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack, and they are also a great way to use up leftover oats. With their chewy texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and nutty crunch from the flaxseed, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
