Soft Pumpkin Cookies
Soft Pumpkin Cookies blend almond and coconut flours with pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice, creating a moist, tender cookie with fall flavors. The batter is wetter than usual, helping maintain softness. Mini chocolate chips add bursts of chocolate throughout. These cookies hold their shape during baking and can be optionally decorated with vanilla frosting swirls.
