Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup pure maple syrup
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter until creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the pure maple syrup and granulated sugar, and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Scoop the dough by tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
