Pumpkin Oatmeal Spice Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 cups white wheat flour (you could use all purpose if desired)
- 3 cups of rolled oats
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp cinnamon (feel free to use more if desired)
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- Optional mix ins such as pecans (walnuts, raisins or chocolate chips)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a mixing bowl combine pumpkin, eggs and vanilla until well combined. In a separate bowl, combine flour, oats, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, spices and any mix ins. Combine wet and dry ingredients until mixed. The cookie dough will be very thick.
- Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheets about 2" apart. If desired, flatten the cookie dough slightly with a fork (it will not spread much, and will stay in a shape similar to what you put into the oven).
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until lightly browned. It's best to remove them from the cookie sheet quickly after baking to prevent them from sticking to the sheet.
- Makes approx 36 cookies.
