Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups Pumpkin puree
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 1 piece Large egg
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Chocolate chips or raisins (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract to the creamed butter mixture. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

If using chocolate chips or raisins, gently fold them into the dough with a spoon or spatula.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly puffed.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness. Enjoy!
