Time 2h30m

Yield about 36 cookies

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature

Yield Makes 60

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
2 teaspoons baking powder

  • In another small bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons, 1 inch apart, onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to chop the dates and nuts quickly and evenly.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the dates and nuts by hand. Just be sure to chop them very finely.
  • Be sure to measure the maple syrup correctly. Too much maple syrup will make the cookies too sticky.
  • If you don't have parchment paper, you can grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape.

Conclusion:

These maple nut date cookies are a delicious and healthy snack or dessert. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try!
