Ingredients
1 cup pumpkin puree
2.5 cups rolled oats
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a large glass mixing bowl.
Stir until the ingredients form a smooth liquid base.
Add the rolled oats and cinnamon to the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly until the oats are moistened.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently until evenly distributed.
Allow the mixture to rest for 5 minutes.
Scoop portions onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Ensure you use pureed pumpkin rather than pumpkin pie filling. You can substitute honey for maple syrup using a 1:1 ratio. Store cookies in a sealed container for up to 5 days. These cookies freeze well for long-term meal prep.
