Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter with the brown and granulated sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the egg, then mix in the vanilla extract and maple syrup until smooth.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  6. If using, fold in chopped nuts and/or chocolate chips.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Baking
  1. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden and centers look soft.
  2. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Keep stored in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain chewiness. For added texture, consider using a mix of nuts and chocolate chips.
