Ingredients

  • coconut oil

    melted

    ¼ c
  • honey

    warmed gently if needed to make more liquid; or maple syrup

    ¼ c
  • rolled oats
    1 c
  • quick cooking oats
    1 c
  • dried cranberries

    preferably unsweetened

    ⅝ c
  • pumpkin seeds
    ⅝ c
  • ground flaxseed
    ¼ c
  • pumpkin pie spice

    or cinnamon

    1 tsp
  • sea salt
    ½ tsp
  • pumpkin puree
    ½ c
  • eggs

    * beaten

    2 large

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl combine both kinds of oats, cranberries, pumpkin seeds, ground flax, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, and melted coconut oil and honey. Stir until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Drop 1/4 cup sized scoops of the mixture onto a cookie sheet. I dip the measuring cup into the oat mixture to fill it up. Then I tap it onto the parchment paper lined baking sheet and the dough already comes out looking like a cookie.

  4. 4

    Flatten the dough slightly (cookies won't spread while baking). Bake for about 15-20 minutes until the edges are lightly browned.

  5. 5

    Let cookies cool on baking sheet before moving to an airtight storage container.

Practical Tips & Variations

  • Spice it Up: If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, a blend of cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, and ginger works wonderfully.
  • Sweetness Control: Adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to your preference, or use unsweetened cranberries to reduce sugar.
  • Add-ins Galore: Feel free to personalize your Pumpkin Breakfast Cookies! Stir in a handful of mini chocolate chips for a sweet treat, chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch, or even a sprinkle of shredded coconut.
