Step by step instructions
Here is how to make and bake these maple oatmeal cookies. You will need two trays lined with parchment paper, three mixing bowls, a spatula, a whisk, and a standard ice cream scoop.
Step 1 – Prep. Melt the butter. Allow it to cool as you prep the rest of your ingredients. Remove the egg and maple syrup from the fridge and allow to come to room temperature.
Step 2 – Mix dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, add in flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3 – Mix wet ingredients. In a medium bowl, add in butter and brown sugar. Whisk together.
Step 4 – Mix in egg and maple syrup. Add in the egg and whisk well. Then add in the maple syrup and continue whisking until smooth.
Step 5 – Add in dry ingredients. Mix until a soft cookie dough forms. Don’t overmix!
Step 6 – Scoop and bake. Scoop the cookies onto the prepared baking tray. Bake 6 at a time for 10-13 minutes or until the middle has set.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or in the fridge for a week. You can also freeze the cookies and thaw in the microwave when wanted.
Expert Baking Tips
Here are a few baking tips from my kitchen to yours
- Don’t over mix the dough once the dry ingredients are added. If you over mix, the dough will appear more dry and tough.
- Use pure maple syrup. Table syrup have a lot of added sugars and other things that will alter the results.
- Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature before beginning.
- Make sure the flour is spooned and leveled properly. If you stick the measuring cup into the flour, this will compact it. A scale will give you the most accurate measurements.
