Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (120 g) pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 cup (100 g) rolled oats (or quick oats)
- 4 tbsp (60 ml) pure maple syrup (or honey)
- Optional: ⅓ tsp ground cinnamon, ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 360°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and oats until combined into a thick dough. Adjust with more oats if wet or more pumpkin if dry.
- Scoop 8–10 portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly into cookie shapes.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes until cookies are set and lightly golden.
- Allow cookies to cool fully on the baking sheet before serving.
Notes
- Quick oats yield softer cookies, rolled oats give more texture.
- Adjust sweetness with more maple syrup if desired.
- Add cinnamon, vanilla, or pumpkin pie spice for extra flavor.
- Cookies won’t spread much, so shape them before baking.
- Let cool completely to set properly.
