- 1 tsp cinnamon

Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare and Preheat: Gather all your ingredients and preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC) to ensure it’s ready for baking once the cookie dough is mixed.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the gluten free oats, cinnamon, salt, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and chocolate chips. Stir the mixture well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated into a sticky cookie dough.
- Shape Cookies: Using a cookie scooper or your hands, portion out the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Gently flatten each cookie slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon to help them bake evenly.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned around the edges and set in the center.
- Cool and Enjoy: Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your wholesome pumpkin oatmeal cookies as a snack or dessert.
