Notes

Tips
  • Always weigh ingredients for the best results.
  • I always bake with salted butter, but if you want to use unsalted butter that's okay too, just add 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Make sure your butter is soft. I like to leave it out at room temperature to soften naturally.
  • If you don’t have light brown sugar, you can use half cane sugar and half dark brown sugar for the same results.
  • The kind of cinnamon you use will determinate the flavor. Check out my post Best Cinnamon to Bake With for more info on the different types of cinnamon.
  • Gluten Free — Replace the all purpose flour with 269 grams (1 3/4 cups) gluten free flour blend.
  • Vegan — Replace the butter with your favorite vegan butter or vegetable shortening for a dairy-free option.
  • High Altitude — Bake at 375°F for 13 to 15 minutes or until golden brown on the bottoms.
