Ingredients
Scale
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, cream together the pumpkin puree, sugar, and softened butter.
Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For added flavor, consider adding chocolate chips or nuts to the dough.
These cookies can be frosted with a cream cheese frosting for extra sweetness.
