Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, bran cereal flakes, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients from the medium bowl to the wet mixture in the large bowl. Mix on low speed until a crumbly dough starts to form.
Stir in the raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
