Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F, line a large cookie sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Set aside.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, add all the dry ingredients & spices, whisk together until combined. Set aside.

Step 3

I’m a large mixing bowl, add butter, sugar & beat until fluffy. Add egg, vanilla & beat again until even more fluffy - it should be turning a lighter color. Add pumpkin, peanut butter & beat once more until fully combined.

Step 4

Carefully add the dry ingredients into the wet, slowly beat or stir by hand until everything is evenly combined. The batter should be slightly soft.

Step 5

Using a cookie scoop, drop mounds of dough about 1” apart onto the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 12 minutes until cookies are puffed, set & slightly browned along the edges.

Step 6

Let cool completely if you plan to glaze them, otherwise 5-10 minutes if enjoying plain. Store leftovers in the fridge!
