Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts optional
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar for dusting

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the honey, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If using, fold in the chopped walnuts.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  8. Once cooled, dust the cookies with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • For a twist, try adding a teaspoon of orange zest to the dough for a citrusy flavor.
  • You can also substitute the walnuts with almonds or pecans for a different nutty taste.
  • For a more indulgent treat, drizzle extra honey over the cookies before serving.
