Flourless Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies

Prep Time 5 min Cook Time 12 min Serves 18 cookies     adjust servings

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

  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. 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.
  3. Place the food processor container in the fridge so the mixture can firm up a bit. About 10 minutes.
  4. Once the mixture is firm enough to scoop, drop cookies onto a lined baking sheet . I used a cookie scoop for my cookies.
  5. Bake for 12 minutes.
  6. 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!
