Oatmeal Raisin Flax Cookie



This is such a good cookie with a lot of nutrition. I decided to make the exception to my usual raw recipes because these are very very good. I make the 52 cookies and freeze them into snack bags and take them out as needed. They come out soft. Let me know what you think!

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
2. Mix together the margarine and sweeteners until creamy. (I use a stand up mixer)
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 Tablespoons flax seed meal with 8 Tablespoons of water. Add to mixer.
4. Add in remaining dry ingredients: Mix in oats then raisins on low.
5. Measure about 1 heaping Tbsp. of cookie dough per cookie onto un-greased cookie sheets. Cookies do not spread much so you can have them pretty close together in pan. Leave a quarter inch space.
