Is it pumpkin season already?!? 🎃

Why yes it is and it's also time to try these yummy, spiced chocolate cookies!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup coconut oil, melted

3/4 cup canned pumpkin purée

3/4 cup brown sugar

1 egg

2 tsps vanilla

2 tsps cinnamon

1/4 tsp allspice

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp banking soda

1/4 tsp salt

2 tbsps cocoa powder

1 1/3 cups oat flour (use 1 1/2 cups oats in food processor)

1 cup dark or semi sweet chocolate chips

In a large bowl mix the coconut oil, pumpkin purée, brown sugar, egg and vanilla together. Mix the cinnamon, allspice, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder together. Then add the dry to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. Incorporate the chocolate chips.

Chill the dough for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours to give the coconut oil time to set.

When ready to bake take heaping tablespoons of cookie dough, form into balls and place on a lined baking sheet 2" apart. Gently press down on the top slightly.

Bake at 350°F for 12-14 minutes.
