It is when we are in transition that we are most fully alive. ~W. Bridges
Vegan Pumpkin Cookies with hazelnuts and chocolate chips are spicy tender morsels of goodness. Almond flour creates a light texture with a bonus of added protein. Coconut sugar is less sweet, has a lovely toasty flavor and still has some nutrients intact as opposed to white sugar being void of nutrients. These cookies are not the sugary sweet variety, rather they are a wholesome treat that you feel good about eating. Even for breakfast!
Fresh ginger is highly recommended, adding a vibrant yet softer zing than dried ginger. I love making this fresh pumpkin puree for fall recipes though canned pumpkin is great here too.
These come together fast all in one bowl! And most importantly these cookies passed the kid test! That is no easy task around here. I mean if it is a cookie usually my kids will eat it, but not always. Zalee, my daughter, has an amazingly keen pallet, picking out the most subtle of ingredients.
I always try to sneak in extra nutrition but nothing gets past her. I felt like I accomplished something with these as after one bite all she said was “yum!” She has no problem speaking her truth so I took it as a win!
Ingredients in Vegan Pumpkin Cookies
How to make Vegan Pumpkin Cookies
Step one
In a bowl combine softened coconut oil, coconut sugar, pumpkin puree, ginger, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Step two
Add almond flour, oat flour and sprinkle baking soda over the top. Mix to combine. For best results, weigh the flours.
Step three
Mix in chocolate chips and nuts. Refrigerate 15 minutes or longer is fine too.
Step four
Scoop into balls, I did 1 ounce here. Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand.
Step five
Bake in preheated oven at 350 for 13-15 minutes. Allow to rest on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
The flavors come out more as they sit for a couple hours. They also freeze great and make a good snack straight from the freezer!
Variations on Pumpkin Cookies
- Try different nuts or leave them out.
- Cacao nibs add a nice crunch.
- Swap out chocolate for dried cranberries or do both!
- Use butternut in place of pumpkin.
I am so mesmerized by the colors of the leaves right now and how quickly they are shifting day by day. I found myself staring at a giant maple this morning that seems to have suddenly lost all its leaves overnight. Initially, I saw it as so exposed and almost vulnerable and yet as I gazed a little longer the sense I got from this beautiful tree was a strong and sure presence with no excuses or need to be covered up. There was something so moving about witnessing the essence of being totally bare and unapologetically exposed, just simply allowing the natural cycles of the season.
