Farmland Flax Cookies
For those of you who love oatmeal cookies, here is another variation that is worth a try. I've been making Farmland Flax Cookies for a while now and they are popular in my house. This batch was requested by my friend who had a surplus of flaxseeds sitting in her cupboard so I helped her use them up.The recipe is a snap to make and what you end up with is a golden, scoopable drop cookie batter. The flax seeds are added in whole, but for extra nutrition, try adding ground seeds as well. If you want, you can make them more 'seedy' by adding sesame seeds and sunflower seeds.
You can make the cookies soft and chewy or a little more crispier depending on your cookie texture preference. Just don't bake them too long because they do brown quickly. I baked these cookies for 11 minutes and they were crispy around the edges and soft in the centre.

I'm a nut for flax seeds putting them in probably 70% of everything I bake.

I look oatmeal cookies. I will soon be featuring a version that is made in Australia and New Zealand in honor of WWI soldiers. I use 1 or 2 teaspoons of ginger powder which gives it an unusual taste.
