Oatmeal Pumpkin Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies


Ingredients

Wet Ingredients: 

1/2 cup pumpkin puree (I use Farmer’s Market - Organic & BPA free)

2 tbsp virgin, unrefined coconut oil, melted

1 tsp apple cider vinegar (I use Eden Organic)


 Dry Ingredients: 

1 cup gluten free oats

2 tbsp organic coconut sugar

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp Himalayan salt 


Fold ins: 

1/2 cup pecans, chopped

1/3 cup chocolate chips (I use Enjoy Life Brand)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 
  2. Line baking sheet with silpat or parchment paper.
  3. Combine all wet ingredients together in a bowl and mix well.
  4. Add the coconut sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt and mix well.
  5. Add the oats and mix until thoroughly combined.
  6. Fold in the pecans and chocolate chips.
  7. Scoop batter onto pan using small cookie scoop. These do not spread so you can press them down a bit to flatten and then place them closely together on the cookie sheet.
  8. Bake for 12-14 minutes, according to thickness.
  9. Allow to fully cool before removing from pan or they will crumble apart. This time is important to allow them to set and firm up.
