These are an ever so slightly healthier version of an Everything but the kitchen sink cookie. You can pretty much put whatever add ins you want. I like chocolate chip and raisin, but dried cherries or cranberries or M&M's or butterscotch chips would all be good. I made these egg-free with flax seed, but you could easily make them with two eggs instead.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
1/2 cup water
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions:
1. cream together butter, sugars and vanilla.
2. bring 1/2 cup water to boil in small saucepan and add 2 tbsp ground flaxseed, continue to boil, stirring constantly until an egg-white, jellylike consistency. Then let cool.
3. Mix together flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
4. Beat egg replacer in to butter/sugar mixture.
5. Mix flour mixture in to creamed ingredients.
6. Stir in remaining ingredients- mixture will be very stiff.
7. Drop by rounded tablespoonful on to cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden.
