Description

Soft and sweet cookies with a hint of salt and honey, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter (at room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup Oil (vegetable oil works well here)
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar (or dark brown sugar for a richer taste)
  • 1/2 cup Honey (pure honey offers the best flavor)
  • 1 large Egg (or a flax egg for a vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour (consider gluten-free flour for a dietary twist)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, oil, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the honey, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them about two inches apart.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
