Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add the pure maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract to the mixture and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers will appear slightly underbaked, which is perfect for a chewy texture.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these maple cookies with a hot cup of tea or coffee for a cozy treat!
