Ingredients:
- Dry Ingredients:
- 1½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- ¼ tsp ground cloves (optional)
- Wet Ingredients:
- ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened (or coconut oil for vegan)
- ½ cup (100g) brown sugar (or coconut sugar)
- ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (120g) pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional Add-ins:

Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices) in a bowl.
- Cream butter & sugars in a separate bowl until fluffy. Add pumpkin puree and vanilla, mixing well.
- Combine wet & dry—gradually fold in dry ingredients until just mixed (don’t overmix). If using add-ins, stir them in.
- Scoop dough (about 1 tbsp per cookie) onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 12-15 mins until edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the sheet for 5 mins before transferring.
Optional Glaze (for extra sweetness):
- Mix ½ cup powdered sugar + 1 tbsp milk + ¼ tsp cinnamon, then drizzle over cooled cookies.
Tips:
- For chewier cookies, refrigerate dough for 30 mins before baking.
- For vegan version, use coconut oil and dairy-free chocolate chips.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
