They are super soft, chewy, and will simply melt in your mouth. Embedded with gooey chunks of chocolate and an aroma of fall spices.
I am back with another pumpkin recipe…I just can’t get enough!
I recently made these pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and they were a hit amongst friends and family so, of course, I had to share the recipe.
They are extremely simple and easy to make and in my opinion, the ideal introductory fall dessert recipe.
I’ve tried this recipe multiple ways, and the texture has come out the best with vegan butter, however, you can sub with softened coconut oil.
It will yield a slightly coconut flavor and may be more moist, but will have a pretty similar texture and taste.
Feel free to use regular flour if you don’t want it to be gluten-free!
These cookies contain simple ingredients, such as:
flaxseed meal, vegan butter, pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract for the wet ingredients.
And…
all-purpose flour, baking soda, pumpkin spice, salt, and chocolate chips for the dry ingredients.
These Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies are….
- Soft, fluffy, and moist
- Easy and simple
- Egg and dairy-free
- Oh so delicious!
