How to Make Maple Oatmeal Hazelnut Shortbread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease.
  2. In a food processor, finely grind 1 cup of hazelnuts. Set aside 1/4 cup for rolling; pulse remaining until finely ground.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 cup Splenda Brown Sugar Blend (or 2 cups packed light brown sugar) until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 1/2 cup pure maple syrup and 1 teaspoon maple extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups rolled oats and 2 cups all-purpose flour. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Roll the dough into 1-tablespoon-sized balls.
  7. Roll each ball in the reserved 1/4 cup of ground hazelnuts to coat.
  8. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Gently flatten each ball slightly with a fork.
  9. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the cookies are set.
  11. Let cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
