Super Yummy Flax Pumpkin & Raisin Cookies

Made these yesterday for my daughter but I can't keep my hands off of them! One of the better 'healthy' cookies I've had in a long time!

2 c flour (I had unbleached white, but I think you could use half wheat)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 c butter
1 egg
1 c canned pumpkin (I used a can of pie mix from Trader Joe's)
1 tsp vanilla
1 c raisins (or mix of dried fruits - I had some papaya on hand so used a handful of dried papaya and a handful of raisins, but cranberries or dried cherries would also be great)
1/2 c flax seed
1/2 brown sugar

Mix dry ingredients. In separate bowl cream butter and sugar, then add eggs, pumpkin, vanilla. Combine bowls and add flax seed & dried fruit.

Drop spoonfuls (they don't really melt down so I wouldn't pile them high) onto non stick or greased cookie sheet and bake at 375° for about 10 or 11 min, until lightly browned on bottom.

They are yummy!
