How to Make Sugar Free Pumpkin Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, 1 egg, 1/4 cup xylitol, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  6. Bake for 10-13 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While cookies are still warm, drizzle with frosting (see instructions below).
  9. **Frosting:**
  10. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 2 tablespoons of dairy-free butter (or coconut oil).
  11. Stir in 2 tablespoons of milk (dairy or non-dairy), 2 tablespoons xylitol, and 1 tablespoon molasses. Cook, stirring constantly, until the xylitol is completely dissolved.
  12. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  13. Drizzle the warm frosting over the warm cookies or gently dunk the tops of the cookies into the frosting.
