Omg these flourless chocolate pumpkin cookies just might be my new favorite pumpkin recipe this season! I know I said that about my paleo pumpkin pie cupcakes and my pumpkin truffles, but these flourless chocolate pumpkin cookies are amazing too! I guess I just really love pumpkin recipes! Especially when they are healthy pumpkin recipes. The best part about this recipe? It only contains 6 simple ingredients!
Not only do these healthy pumpkin cookies contain no flour, but they also contain no refined sugar either. No mixer needed to make this super easy recipe. These pumpkin cookies are vegan, gluten free and paleo. If you need a nut free version, you can probably use sunflower butter or pumpkin butter.
Flourless Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies
Flourless Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies
A soft and fudgy cookie that is secretly healthy!
Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin puree ( canned pumpkin will work too)
- 1 cup cashew butter
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips (For a sugar free option you can use cacao nibs )
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Mix all ingredients, except the chocolate chips in the food processor . Once smooth, add in the chocolate chips and pulse a few times to mix them.
- Place the food processor container in the fridge so the mixture can firm up a bit. About 10 minutes.
- Once the mixture is firm enough to scoop, drop cookies onto a lined baking sheet . I used a cookie scoop for my cookies.
- Bake for 12 minutes.
- Wait until the cookies are completely cooled before transferring them to an airtight container.
Recipe Notes
These cookies are soft with a fudge-like texture. Store them in the fridge. They should last a week. You may also be able to freeze them, but I haven't tried. Enjoy!
