Happy Halloween!
I hope you are all having a fun and not too scary Halloween! Thinking back of those times when my kids were still little and impatiently waiting for this day to come. Such cute memories of my daughter mostly dressing up as a little princess, my son trying out different characters from cowboy to Star Wars Darth Vader 🙂
I’ve made these delicious, melt-in-your-mouth pumpkin cookies, all dressed up for Halloween, these are the perfect fall or holiday cookie, with a lovely pumpkin and spice flavor. Can be enjoyed with or without icing. I used maple butter as an icing.
Pumpkin Cookies
- 1/2 cup butter, soft
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups maple syrup
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups white spelt flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp cloves
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
-Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
-Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt, set aside.
-Cream together the butter, egg and maple syrup. Add pumpkin puree and vanilla, beat until creamy. Mix in dry ingredients. Drop on cookie sheet by tablespoonfuls, flatten slightly.
-Bake for 15-20 minutes in the preheated oven or until lightly browned. Let cool completely. Drizzle with maple butter or icing.
Tip: -Use 3 teaspoons of pumpkin spice. – Substitute spelt flour with whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour.
Enjoy!

These are fabulous. I’d forgotten that when my girls were young I used to make pumpkin cookies for them. They also love everything pumpkin. I need to find that recipe! Or, I can just use yours. Thanks!
