Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams brown sugar (packed)
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 90 ml pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 300 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.
Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and the egg to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion out the dough into small balls (about 1.5 tablespoons each) and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Optional: For additional sweetness and texture, sprinkle a small pinch of granulated sugar on top of each dough ball before baking.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers will look slightly underbaked, which gives them a soft and chewy texture.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Maple Brown Sugar Cookies with a warm cup of tea or coffee. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
