How to Make Oatmeal Pumpkin Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup rolled oats, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir in 1 cup pumpkin puree until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup raisins (or ½ cup chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped nuts).
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and centers are set but still slightly soft. For chewier cookies, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  8. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
