Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Set to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Create the Dough: Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a soft dough forms. Fold in any optional add-ins.
- Shape the Cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Tips for Perfect Butter-Free Cookies
- Chill the Dough: If the dough is too sticky, refrigerate it for 30 minutes before baking.
- Experiment with Flavors: Add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for an extra twist.
- Use High-Quality Oil: The flavor of the oil can influence the taste, so choose one you enjoy.
