Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups wheat bran
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup raisins (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together wheat bran, flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Beat in egg and vanilla extract until combined.
- Alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Fold in raisins if using.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Tips
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- For extra moisture, add 1/2 cup chopped dates or dried cranberries instead of raisins.
- These cookies freeze well for up to 3 months.
