How to Make Healthier Pumpkin Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Add 1 ½ cups of rolled oats to a blender or food processor and blend into a fine powder.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the oat flour, 1 cup pumpkin puree, ½ cup brown sugar, ½ teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup chocolate chips (or desired chips/raisins/candied fruit). Mix until well combined.
  4. Drop rounded teaspoons of cookie dough onto lightly greased baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye on them as ovens vary.
  6. Remove from baking sheets immediately to prevent burning and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
