Ingredients
  

  • 85 g Oats -rolled or quick cooking (1 cup)
  • 55 g wheatflour (1/2cup)
  • 50 g butter (1/4cup)
  • 1 Egg
  • 60 g sugar (1/3cup)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp cinnamon powder
  • 50 g raisins (1/3cup)

Instructions
 

  • First, take oats and raisins in a food processor. Blitz it for few seconds.
    85 g Oats, 50 g raisins
  • Next, cream the butter and sugar till nice and fluffy using a whisk/ hand blender/ stand mixer.
    50 g butter, 60 g sugar
  • Then, add an egg to it and whisk it well. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
    1 Egg, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Add in the oats and raisins mix, wheat flour and cinnamon powder. Use a spatula to mix all the ingredients to form a dough.
    55 g wheatflour, 1/8 tsp cinnamon powder
  • Cover the dough and keep in the fridge. The dough will be sticky so keeping it in the refrigerator for half an hour will make it easier to handle.
  • Once it's chilled, take out the dough and scoop out small portions of it on the parchment sheet. Flatten it with slightly with your fingers.
  • Bake them in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 10-15 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown in colour and the top is set.
  • Remove from the oven and cool them completely on a wire rack before storing in an airtight container. It stays fresh for a week.

Notes

  • To make them eggless use 1 chia egg. Soak 1 tablespoon of chia seeds in 3 tablespoons of water for 10 minutes. 
  • Alternately you can flavor the cookies with cinnamon/nutmeg/clove.
  • Slightly overbake them if you like crispy cookies and here they are extra delicious when overbaked.
  • The cookies aren't overly sweet. If you prefer very sweet cookies feel free to increase the amount of sugar.
