Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a soft dough forms.

You can add flaky sea salt on top before baking for extra flavor.
