  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract; beat until combined.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and sugar for coating.
  • Scoop dough by tablespoonfuls and roll into balls, then roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Place on baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden but centers are still soft.
  • Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra maple flavor, drizzle a bit of maple glaze over cooled cookies.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Can be frozen for up to 3 months—freeze baked or unbaked dough balls.
