Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a handheld or stand mixer.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats, raisins, and sunflower seeds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each ball of dough slightly with the back of a spoon or your hand.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly underbaked.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Oatmeal Raisin Sunflower Seed Cookies with a glass of milk, tea, or coffee!
