Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, and optional maple extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda, flour, and rolled oats. Gradually stir into wet mixture.
  5. Shape the cookies using 1 ½ tablespoons of dough per cookie, spaced 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until edges are golden and centers remain soft. Watch closely to avoid overbaking.
