Ingredients
- 1 ⅓ cups Gluten Free 1:1 Flour or traditional flour if no gluten allergy
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 egg room temp
- 10 tablespoon butter room temp
- 2 teaspoon light corn syrup
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla Bean paste or 3 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¾ cup Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup pecans crushed
Instructions
- Mix your dry Ingredients. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Mix your wet Ingredients. In a mixer, combine the room temperature, butter, corn syrup, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. With the paddle attachment, mix on medium until well combined, about one minute. Next, add the egg and vanilla bean paste and mix for 30 seconds.
- Mix them together. Gently fold in the dry ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula until fully combined.Next, add in the chocolate chips and pecans and mix with a rubber spatula.
- Scoop your cookies. Using a 2 inch cookie scoop, place the dough balls onto the prepared pan leaving about 1 inch in between each cookie. Place any additional pecans or chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough.
- Bake the cookies. Bake in the oven for 9 to 11 minutes, until the edges are slightly brown. Once done, put them on a wire cooling rack to rest. Enjoy!
Notes
Storage:
- Let the cookies cool, then store them in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature.
- Unused dough can be pre measured out and stored in the freezer. When you are ready you can put the frozen dough strait on a cookie sheet and bake!
- Always use room-temperature eggs and butter to prevent clumping.
- Over-mixing the dough can make the cookies tough and dry. This is true for both wheat flour and gluten free flour.
- So not over bake the cookies to prevent hardening. Remove from the oven just as the edges start to brown.
