To make these treats, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the maple syrup and egg, and mix until well combined. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Allow the treats to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Maple Walnut Gingerbread Treats are a perfect combination of sweet and spicy flavors. The maple syrup adds a subtle sweetness, while the gingerbread spices give them a warm and cozy flavor. The chopped walnuts add a nice crunch and nuttiness to the treats.
In two words, these treats can be described as 'Maple Gingerbread Delights'. The three main ingredients are maple syrup, walnuts, and gingerbread spices. Enjoy these treats with a cup of hot cocoa or coffee for the ultimate cozy treat.
