Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC) to ensure it reaches the correct temperature by the time you’re ready to bake.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten free oats, cinnamon, salt, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and chocolate chips. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated to form a cookie dough.
- Shape Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or your hands, scoop out portions of the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a non-stick surface. Gently flatten each cookie slightly to help them bake evenly.
- Bake Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the cookies for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the cookies are set.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious gluten free pumpkin oatmeal cookies!
Notes
- For extra flavor, add 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg to the dough.
- Ensure your oats are certified gluten free to avoid cross-contamination.
- If you prefer a less sweet cookie, reduce the maple syrup by a tablespoon.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for longer keeping.
