Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (I recommend coconut sugar)
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups whole grain flour (I recommend einkorn)
  • 1 ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp ginger
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ⅛ tsp clove
  • ½ cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Line a large baking sheet with a silpat mat.
  2. In a large bowl with a hand mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle blade, beat together 1/2 cup of melted butter and 1/2 cup of sugar until it’s light in color, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater/blade.
  3. Add 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree and 1 tsp of vanilla extract and beat until everything is well incorporated, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater/blade.
  4. Add 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, 1/2 tsp of salt, 1/2 tsp of baking powder, 1/2 tsp of baking soda, 1/4 tsp of ginger, 1/4 tsp of nutmeg, 1/8 tsp of clove and 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and mix on low JUST until combined.
  5. Using a cookie scoop, scoop two scoops of dough per cookie onto the baking sheet. Leave about 2-3” of space between each cookie. (If you’re using these USA baking pans and these silpat mats, you’ll get 12 cookies per pan.)
  6. When you’ve scooped all the cookies, working with one at a time, PRESS (not roll) the double scoop of dough into a ball using the palm of your hands. Place the dough back onto the baking pan and press down slightly. Repeat the process for all the cookies.
  7. Chill the dough for 30 minutes. This is a required step that you cannot skip.
  8. When you’re ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350F.
  9. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes and allow to cool on the baking pan for 10 minutes before placing them on a cooling rack to cool completely.
