- In a large bowl, combine vegan butter, vanilla, brown sugar, vanilla, sugar, and flax eggs together until there are no clumps

- Once combined, fold in nuts (if using) and raisins

- Using a cookie scoop, place evenly on a prepared baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake 10-12 minutes
Notes
Pro tip: Use an ice cream or cookie scoop to easily partition the batter. This way, the cookies will be the same size and perfectly round
Cookie tips
- Chill out! – While note required, chilling the batter takes extra time yes, but I it will yield the best cookies. This allows the butter to harden so the cookies do not flatten while baking. Chill for 30 minutes if you decide to do this step.
- Don’t overbake – When the edges start to turn golden brown, and the fresh cookie smell fills your kitchen, that’s when you’ll know the cookies are done. If you overbake, the texture will not be as soft and fluffy.
How to store these vegan cookies
Storage – Store these cookies in a ziplock bag or airtight container on the counter for up to 5 days. Allow the cookies to cool to room temperature on a wire rack before storing them. Freezing – You can freeze these delicious gluten free cookies or even the cookie dough. If freezing the cookie dough, let it thaw in the fridge for a few hours before baking.Nutrition
