Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture. Beat until well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop the dough into 1.5-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Optional: Lightly sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top of each cookie for extra flavor.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the cookies as is, or serve them with a cup of tea or coffee!
