Gluten-Free Pumpkin Cookies
Gluten-free pumpkin cookies are the best way to celebrate fall (or any other time of the year!). These chocolate chip filled pumpkin cookies are so delicious, it is impossible to only eat one of them.
This is the time of year where we start putting pumpkin in everything we can. Anyone else?! There are so many delicious recipes made with pumpkin puree and this one incorporates pumpkin in a way we can’t resist! It is also a great recipe to get your kids involved in helping make them. My 5-year-old, Fletcher, loved helping me make these and then enjoyed eating them even more! An orange cookie (that isn’t orange from colored icing) can be strange for kids, so having them be a part of the cooking process, can help them try new things! Fletcher shared the best quote with me during the process, “Umm… you said we were making pumpkin cookies and these do not look like pumpkins.” Luckily, he wasn’t too disappointed in the answer and I did have the pumpkin we cut and roasted ourselves to show him where the pumpkin puree we used came from.
Whether you are looking for a way to use up all that pumpkin you roasted or purchasing a can of pumpkin puree from the grocery, this recipe is absolutely amazing and delicious!
Make yourself a cup of coffee (or a Golden Latte) and get your fall baking on.
