Ingredients

  • 2 ⅓ cups (272 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (45 g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup (200 g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • ⅓ cup (105 g) pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (170 g) semisweet chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup (75 g) chopped pecans
  • ¾ cup (about 45 g) crushed pretzels

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and brown sugar on medium speed for 1 to 2 minutes, or until creamy. Add the egg and mix until combined.
  • Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Beat until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed just until no dry streaks remain.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips, pecans, and crushed pretzels until evenly distributed.
  • Scoop the dough into 2-tablespoon portions and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers still look slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
