Growing up, when our mom bought packets of instant oatmeal (rarely), we always wished there were more of the maple cinnamon packets in the box! There’s just something about the maple + cinnamon combination that I’ve always loved, so it’s no surprise that these Maple Cinnamon Oatmeal Cookies are one of my absolute favorites. 😉 When I take a bite of one, I’m suddenly transported back to those days of eating maple cinnamon oatmeal as a treat breakfast….

(I’m also a huge fan of our Maple Pecan Sheetcake and our Better than Starbucks Maple Pecan Latte recipe!)

This recipe is really easy and can be mixed up in just a few minutes. You’ll start by creaming your butter and sugars, then adding egg and maple extract. Although the smell at this point will be VERY enticing, I don’t suggest tasting the batter (of course) :-P.

In a separate mixing bowl you’ll mix your dry ingredients.  Then add the dry ingredients to your creamed mixture and mix just until combined.

At this point, you still SHOULD NOT taste the dough since it has raw eggs in it. (But if you do, no one will blame you…that maple cinnamon smell is hard to resist! Not that I’ve ever given in or anything…… )

Ok, now your dough is mixed, but for the best results, I HIGHLY recommend chilling the dough for 30 minutes so that it doesn’t spread too much during baking. In the meantime get your pan ready.  I, of course, use our favorite pan from Nordic Ware — and line with parchment paper.

Grab a cookie scoop if you’re like me and have to have all your cookies the same size, haha….I even have to make sure they’re all “in line” on the pan!? Trust me, I can’t help it.  Space cookies about 2 inches apart – on my half-sheet pan, I fit 12 cookies (3×4).

Bake for 10-12 minutes (mine took exactly 11). Let the tops get medium brown…if they’re too pale, they will end up fragile. (I do know this from experience, ha!) Let the cookies cool on the pan for a couple minutes before moving to cooling racks.

  2. I tried to make these but I froze the dough in balls, let it thaw for about an hour on cookie sheets before baking and ended up with lace looking cookies. I’m going to let them cool to see if they firm up. The flavor is good but not a cookie yet.

  4. If I were to add a cup of craisins to this recipe do you know what other adjustments I would need to make to maintain the right balance between wet and dry ingredients?

  5. These sound amazing. Are they a soft cookie or a crunchy cookie?

  6. I was wondering if I could use old fashioned oatmeal?

  7. Can I use pure maple syrup in place of extract?

  8. These sound delicious. I dont normally have maple extract hanging around but being from Quebec ( Canada) we are very proud of our pure maple syrup. Could I substitute? And would you use the same amount? More/less?
    Thanks☺

  9. I feel like that is a lot of sugar for this recipe do you think I could reduce to 1 cup and still get good results?? They look delish for fall!!

  10. Saw this recipe and just HAD to give it a whirl. Being vegan, I subbed with 2 flax eggs and Becel vegan. They were FAAAAAAANTASTIC!! Thanks for the recipe!
