Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cream the unsalted butter and vegetable oil with brown sugar and honey using a hand mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until creamy.
  2. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and combine on low speed for about 30 seconds.
  3. Gradually add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix until just combined.
  4. Roll the dough into tablespoon-sized balls, place them on parchment-lined baking sheets, and refrigerate for 90 minutes.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) while the dough chills.
  6. Arrange the dough balls on the baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes until edges are set and tops are lightly golden.
  7. Sprinkle fleur de sel on top while they are still warm, then cool on a wire rack.
