Yields: (38 Bites)

Prep: 15 Minutes

Bake: 10 to 12 Minutes

INGREDIENTS

6 tablespoons butter, at room temperature

½ cup granulated sugar

1 egg

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

1 cup old-fashioned oats

1 cup raisins

¼ cup quality maple syrup

1 cup confectioners’ sugar

2 tablespoon quality maple syrup

1 tablespoon water

METHOD

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a couple of baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, cream together butter and sugar using a hand mixer until smooth, then beat in egg and vanilla. Using a spoon, stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt.  Fold in oats, raisins, and maple syrup until fully incorporated.

Drop dough in rounded teaspoonfuls 1” apart onto prepared cookie sheets (I use a miniature scoop and drag it up the side of the bowl to ensure uniform bites).

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until edges are lightly browned and centers are set.  Cool 1 minute on cookie sheets.  Remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

Meanwhile, sift, and then whisk 1 cup of confectioners’ sugar with maple syrup and water until a smooth glaze has formed, (adding more or less maple syrup/water for proper consistency).  Spoon glaze into the bottom corner of a ziploc bag, and snip the tip.  Glaze the cooled cookies using a back and forth motion. Let glaze set. ~ Enjoy!
