Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and beat until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid over-mixing the dough.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set but still soft.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
