Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar tightly packed
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour all purpose or gluten free
- 1 tsp baking soda
- pinch sea salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp ground cloves
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
Instructions
- First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.
- Then, add the pumpkin purée, egg, and vanilla extract to the mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the lined baking sheet. Leave 3 inches between each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look soft, but they will firm up slightly as they cool.
- Finally, remove the cookies from the oven. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes
- Both all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour work well.
- Since I am gluten free, I used King Arthur Flour gluten free 1 to 1 flour for these cookies.
- Use pumpkin purée, not pumpkin pie filling.
- Space the dough balls 3 inches apart. These cookies spread while baking.
- These cookies will be slightly soft when they come out of the oven. Do not overbake.
- Store these cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Freeze for up to 2 months.
