Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 30 Cookies

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (spoon and level to measure flour)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 large egg optional
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • cups semi-sweet chocolate chips can also use milk chocolate if you prefer

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. 
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt for 20 seconds, set aside.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, with an electric mixer, blend together granulated sugar, brown sugar and vegetable oil until combined. 
  • Mix in egg and vanilla then blend in pumpkin puree. 
  • With mixer on low speed, slowly add in flour mixture and mix just until nearly combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed (batter will be pretty wet). 
  • With a rubber spatula, fold in chocolate chips while folding batter to evenly combined. 
  • Drop dough 2 Tbsp at a time (either using a medium cookie dough scoop or using two spoons) at a time onto baking sheets lined with Silcone liners or parchment paper, spacing cookies two inches apart. 
  • Bake until cookies are nearly set, about 11 - 13 minutes. 
  • Allow to cool several minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. 
  • If they last this long, store in a single layer in an airtight container (these are best once they've rested in an airtight container a few hours, they soften throughout).

SPECIAL NOTES

  • Use canned pumpkin for best consistency.
  • Feel free to increase spices as desired.
