- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup sugar (white, coconut, or brown sugar)

Notes
- For a gluten-free version, use certified gluten-free oats and gluten-free flour.
- To make the cookies fat-free, substitute butter with applesauce, canned pumpkin, or mashed banana (texture will be more cake-like).
- Customize with dried cranberries, chopped dates, or other dried fruits instead of raisins.
