🥘 Ingredients

10 items

• 113 grams Unsalted butter
• 150 grams Light brown sugar
• 80 ml Pure maple syrup
• 1 unit Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 210 grams All-purpose flour

📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and light brown sugar together until smooth and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer, about 2-3 minutes.

3. Add the maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Mix until well combined.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

6. If using, gently fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts for a nutty texture and flavor.

7. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart as they will spread slightly.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked (they will continue to set as they cool).

9. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Serve and enjoy your chewy maple cookies with a glass of milk, a cup of coffee, or tea!
