Description
Soft, chewy cookies filled with the comforting flavors of pumpkin pie, perfect for fall gatherings and cozy moments.
Ingredients
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1/2 cup coconut oil (melted) or butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil (or butter), brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until fully combined.
- If desired, fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a gluten-free option, swap the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
To make these cookies vegan, use vegan butter or coconut oil and replace the egg with a flaxseed egg.
If you prefer a crunchier cookie, bake them a little longer.
Store these cookies in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
