Ingredients

  • cup maple syrup
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp melted butter, cooled
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • cup chocolate chips plus more to sprinkle on top

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • Add the maple syrup, melted butter, egg, and vanilla into a bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Add the oats, flour, and baking powder into the bowl and mix until incorporated.
  • Add the chocolate chips (or add-ins of choice) and mix until combined.
  • Scoop out heaping tablespoon-sized portions onto a parchment paper-lined pan and use your hands to flatten and shape the cookies (I made 15 cookies with this mixture). Leave some space between the cookies as they will spread slightly. Please note that the batter is wet and sticky (unlike a typical cookie batter), so it may help to wet your hands a little while shaping. If you'd like, sprinkle additional toppings on top of each cookie.
  • Bake the cookies at 350 degrees F for 12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly brown. Let them cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure to flatten and shape the maple oatmeal cookies beforehand and leave some space between the cookies as they will spread slightly while baking.
  • The mixture will seem sticky and wet at first, but it will firm up while baking. Bake the cookies on a pan lined with parchment paper so that they do not stick.
