Ingredients

  • 180 g Butter, unsalted

  • 100 g Sugar, brown

  • 1 piece Egg, fresh

  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla, extract, natural

  • 280 g Wheat flour, white, multi-purpose

  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder

  • 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder

  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt, table

  • 120 ml Syrup, maple

  • 50 g Walnuts

  • pieces Walnuts

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Prepare two baking sheets and line them with parchment paper.

  2. Beat the softened butter and sugar until well combined and a light mixture forms. Add the egg and vanilla extract/paste.

  3. Sift and mix the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients and maple syrup alternately to the egg-butter mixture. Once a uniform dough is formed, stir in the coarsely ground walnuts using a spatula or wooden spoon.

  4. From the prepared dough, you can form walnut-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets. If the dough is too soft, refrigerate it for a few minutes. Alternatively, you can scoop the dough with a spoon and place smaller mounds on the baking sheets. Optionally, add walnut halves on top of the cookies before baking.

  5. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until they turn golden brown at the edges and bottom. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes after baking, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
