Servings: 18 medium cookies
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup oil
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp vanilla pudding powder
- 1 cup plus 2 Tbsp flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp cornstarch
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ cup chopped pecans
Glaze:
- ½ cup confectioners’ sugar
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tbsp water

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, combine oil, sugar, and maple syrup. Stir in egg.
- Add all dry ingredients. Finally, stir in pecans.
- Scoop cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets. Bake for 7-8 minutes, until center is just set. Cookies will firm up slightly as they cool, but they will retain a soft, chewy texture. Let cool.
