Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 0.5 cup almond butter
- 0.333 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup chocolate chips
- 0.333 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until fully incorporated.
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans or walnuts (if using).
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough at a time onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each scoop slightly using the back of a spoon or your fingers, shaping them into cookie rounds.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies are lightly golden.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
