Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten free oats
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- dash of salt
Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven and prepare ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Gather all your ingredients to ensure a smooth baking process.
- Mix the ingredients. In a large bowl, combine the gluten free oats, cinnamon, salt, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and chocolate chips. Stir everything together until well combined into a sticky dough.
- Shape the cookies. Using a cookie scooper or your hands, scoop portions of the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Gently flatten each cookie slightly to ensure even baking.
- Bake the cookies. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned on the edges and set in the middle.
- Cool and enjoy. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
Notes
- You can substitute chocolate chips with raisins and pumpkin seeds for a nut-free alternative.
- Make sure to use gluten free oats as regular oats may contain gluten contaminants.
- For added spice, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or cloves.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- These cookies freeze well; thaw at room temperature before serving.
