Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup ghee or butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the ghee (or butter), coconut sugar, pure maple syrup, pumpkin, and vanilla extract to a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or use a mixing bowl with an electric hand mixer). Beat until ingredients are well-combined. Add the egg and beat until combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients (GF all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt, pumpkin spice seasoning, and chocolate chips).
  3. Pour the flour mixture into the mixer with the wet mixture and beat until a thick, sticky dough forms.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 15 minutes (up to 2 days).
  5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8” x 8” baking pan with parchment paper.
  6. Spread the pumpkin cookie dough into an even layer in the parchment-lined pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges begin turning golden-brown.
  7. Remove cookie bars from the oven and sprinkle with coarse sea salt (if desired).
  8. Allow cookie bars to cool at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
