Preheat the oven to 350. 

Prepare the "flax eggs" by mixing 4 tablespoon sof flax seed meal with 4 tablespoons of warm water and set aside for 2 minutes. A thick paste will form.

In a large bowl, mix the melted vegan butter, applesauce, monk-fruit sweetener or sugar, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt together. 

Add the flax eggs and mix. 

Add the oats and flour and mix until a thick batter forms. 

Fold in the raisins or dates.

Use a tablespoon to scoop out a tablespoon of batter per cookie and place onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use your fingers to gently form the cookies into round shapes and press down slightly on the cookies until they are about ½ inch thick. You should have about 60 cookies.

Bake in the oven for 10-16 minutes. They will be chewy and soft (similar to Alyssa's Healthy Oatmeal Bites texture).
