Instructions
Method by eatwithclarity.com. Cook it from their page if you can, so the people who developed and tested it get the visit.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large mixing bowl (or bowl for a standing electric mixer), combine the pumpkin puree, coconut oil, sugar, maple syrup and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients. Be sure to spoon and level the flours into the dry measuring cup, don't scoop right from the bag.
- Combine the wet with the dry and beat just until the dry ingredients are well combined, but careful not to over mix. Use a wooden spoon to finish mixing and make sure all of the flour is well incorporated.
- Use a cookie scoop or a spoon to scoop about 1.5 inch balls.
- Flatten slightly into a cookie shape, about 1/2 inch thick. They will spread, but not a ton, while baking.
- Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-18 minutes. 15 is ideal in my oven, and keep in mind they will continue to harden as they cool.
- Let cool completely.
- Beat together all ingredients for the frosting until smooth. Start with 2 cups of powdered sugar and add an extra 1/2 cup if you'd like to make it thicker.
