Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • a pinch of salt
  • ½ cup softened unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)
  • ¼ cup maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Set this aside.
  3. Cream the butter and sugars: In another bowl, cream together ½ cup of softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs and milk: Beat in 1 large egg and ¼ cup of milk (or your non-dairy alternative) to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
  5. Incorporate the dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  6. Fold in the maple syrup: Add ¼ cup of maple syrup to the cookie dough and fold it in gently.
  7. Form the cookies: Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
