Enjoy the taste of fall with these soft oat-based cookies. Make some when pumpkins are in season and all those warming spices start peeking out from your pantry!
Yields 12 cookies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet.
Combine flour, oats, pecans, spices, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, add oil, coconut sugar, egg, vanilla, and pumpkin purée. Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and combine until you get a cookie dough.
Measure out a heaping tablespoon of dough and roll into a ball. Place on baking sheet and gently press with fingers. Repeat until cookie dough is gone.
