"I want to make cookies with raisins," said G-man. I was kind of shocked, because he does not like raisins... He diligently stirred the ingredients together, checking them off the list. Flaxseed meal replaces half of the butter with a source of Omega-3 and, along with the rolled oats, a source of soluble fiber. When the house filled with the festive, spicy aroma during baking, he excitedly paced along with me to see how they would turn out. Delicious!
