How To Make maple nut cookies

Preheat oven to 350F.Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar in a small mixing bowl. In another bowl, beat the butter, syrup, egg and vanilla until well combined. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix. Stir in the cereal, oats and nuts. Drop onto greased baking sheets and bake 10-12 min. until just starting to brown. Cool on pan 1 min., them remove to racks.
