These decadent little treats are vegan, gluten & sugar-free, only 80 calories each, and are made of only THREE ingredients!
To create these, you’ll need less than 20 minutes and only 3 ingredients…super simple.
This is one you’ll have to try out for any seasonal get-together, or just a quiet night in.
I’m going to get right into it, (I’m actually munching on one while writing this!)
Key Ingredients:
- 2.5 cups (250 g) rolled or quick oats
- 1 cup (240 g) pure pumpkin puree
- 2–3 tbsp maple syrup, agave or coconut sugar
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon, (optional but recommended)
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips, (optional but recommended)
Oats.
Quick oats, rolled oats, and old fashioned oats are all good.
Pumpkin.
Instead of pumpkin pie filling, use simple pumpkin puree.
I recommend canned pumpkin, but homegrown pumpkin can still be used.
Sweetener.
Coconut sugar, maple syrup, or agave nectar can be used to sweeten the cookies.
Use liquid or powdered stevia or monk fruit sweetener to make a sugar-free biscuit.
Cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice, as well as chocolate chips, are optional but recommended additions.
INSTRUCTIONS STEP BY STEP:
Step 1: Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl to produce a thick dough.
There’s no need to worry about overmixing; just keep mixing until you achieve a homogenous (me using big words!) dough.
Step 2: Using your hands, form the batter into 12 cookie shapes and lay them on a baking pan.
Quick Note: Because these cookies do not spread or alter shape while baking, make sure you get the shape you want before starting.
Step 3: Put the cookies in the oven to bake!
At 350 degrees F, they only need 10 minutes.
Allow it cool for a few minutes on the pan before serving warm or cool before storing.
Sit back, share & enjoy.
