Pumpkin dark chocolate oat cookies

October 17, 2017 By Veronique

Pumpkin dark chocolate oat cookies

This past week, we have been getting some beautiful fall weather which for some reason makes me want to grab some pumpkin pie spice and sprinkle it on everything. I love fall. It is without a doubt my favorite season. So many great things happen during fall. The trees are prettier, the weather is more enjoyable (in my opinion) and FARMERS MARKETS! Farmers markets just bring me some much cooking and baking inspiration. When sweater weather rolls around, you are most likely to find me in the kitchen cooking and baking. For my first recipe of this fall season, I decided to create something simple but yet perfect for those chillier fall morning. These dark chocolate, pumpkin oat cookies, are great with a hot cup of coffee to start off the day. They are dairy-free, refined-sugar free and gluten-free. I highly recommend giving these delicious cookies a try as they will make your house smell like a delicious fall candle.

Here is how they are made:

Pumpkin dark chocolate oat cookies

Preheat your oven to 350F. Next, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, maple syrup, egg, pumpkin puree and vanilla extract.

Using a ¼ cup ice cream scoop, scoop the batter onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. You should get around 12 cookies with this recipe.

Before you bake them, press the cookies lightly to flatten them slightly. These will not spread in the oven so the shape they have going into the oven is what they will look like after being baked.

Bake for 14-16 minutes or until the edges become lightly golden. Let cool on the cookie sheet for about 5 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely. It is important to let them cool since they will be too fragile to pick up when still hot.
