Soft and chewy oatmeal raisin cookies are made without dairy or eggs! Just swing by a supermarket for the special ingredients — coconut oil, nondairy milk (such as almond milk), and flaxseed meal (a great substitute for eggs). The recipe is a Yummly original created by Sara Mellas.

Instructions
1
|
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2
|
Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
3
|
Place the coconut oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, molasses, nondairy milk, flaxseed meal, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth and combined.
4
|
Add the flour, oats, spices, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Mix with a rubber spatula until a smooth dough forms. Fold in the raisins and walnuts.
5
|
Allow the dough to rest for 10 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the excess liquid. Divide the cookie dough into 16 balls, using roughly 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough for each, and arrange them spaced 1 1/2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Transfer the sheet to the freezer for 10-15 minutes. (Alternately, freeze the dough balls on a small tray or large plate and transfer to the baking sheet after freezing.)
6
|
Bake the cookies on middle rack of oven until puffy and golden brown at the edges, 13-15 minutes.
7
|
Check to see that cookies are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
8
|
Allow the cookies to rest on the sheets for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Flaxseed Egg Perfection 🥚When making the flaxseed 'egg', let the mixture sit for 5-7 minutes to develop a gel-like consistency that perfectly mimics egg binding in vegan baking.
- Raisin Plumping Trick 🍇Soak raisins in warm nondairy milk for 10 minutes before adding to the cookie dough to ensure they're soft, plump, and prevent them from burning during baking.
- Coconut Oil Technique 🥥Melt the refined coconut oil until just liquid, then let it cool slightly before mixing to ensure the perfect texture and prevent separation in your cookie dough.
- Chilling Dough Magic 🧊Refrigerate the cookie dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading and create a thicker, chewier cookie with deeper flavor development.
- Nutmeg & Cinnamon Balance 🌿Toast your ground spices lightly in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the recipe to enhance their aromatic oils and deepen the warm, complex flavor profile.
