👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 175°C (345°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Mix the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, cumin and salt.
  3. 3
    Add the eggs, oil, carrot and vanilla and mix into a soft dough.
  4. 4
    Fold the nuts and raisins into the dough gently.
    ⚙ FoldingSilicone spatula
  5. 5
    Drop teaspoonfuls of the batter onto the baking sheet, spaced apart.
    Baking pan
  6. 6
    Bake 12–14 minutes, until the cookies are golden at the edges.
    ⚙ BakingOvenBaking pan
    💡Cookies that look too soft coming out of the oven firm up as they cool. Take them out when just the edges are golden.
    💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
  7. 7
    Let cool completely before serving.
