Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 medium egg
- 4 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 3 tbsp coconut flour
- 1 tbsp pumpkin spice
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup milk chocolate chips
Preheat the oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add coconut oil into a small bowl and microwave it just for a couple of seconds until it melts. Set it aside to cool down a little.
In a large bowl, whisk together all of the wet ingredients except for coconut oil. Then, mix in the coconut oil once it has cooled down a little.
In a medium bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients except for chocolate chips.
Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, do it slowly, part by part, and combine gently with a rubber spatula.
Once the dough is ready, fold in chocolate chips.
Scoop about 2 tbsp of dough into your hand and roll it into a ball. Place each ball on the baking sheet until you use up the whole dough. You should make roughly 16 balls.
Press the balls with your fingers or the palm of your hand to shape them into cookies. They won’t change the shape, so shape them up as you want.
Bake in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes. Remove, let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 4-5 minutes, and then transfer onto a cooling rack. Let them cool down a little before serving.
