Step 1

Brown the butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 2

Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma.

Step 3

Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 4

Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter, pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and maple syrup. Mix until smooth.

Step 5

Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.

Step 7

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Step 8

Chill the Dough: Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 9

Bake the Cookies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 10

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls.

Step 11

Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 12

Gently press down on each dough ball to slightly flatten.

Step 13

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.

Step 14

Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
