Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 0.33 cup pure maple syrup
  • 3 tbsp beaten egg about 1 large egg
  • 1.25 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.5 tsp maple extract optional, boosts maple flavor
  • 2.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 tsp baking soda
  • 0.25 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp fine salt
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon optional, for warmth

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
  • Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl; set aside.
  • Beat softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Mix in maple syrup, beaten egg, vanilla, and maple extract until smooth.
  • Stir in dry ingredients just until a soft dough forms; do not overmix.
  • Scoop 1½-tablespoon portions onto sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Lightly flatten tops with fingertips.
  • Bake 9–11 minutes, until edges are set and centers look slightly soft.
  • Cool 5 minutes on the sheet, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra sparkle, roll dough balls in coarse sugar before baking. Store cookies airtight at room temperature for 3–4 days or freeze up to 2 months.
