Vegan Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 cups 250g all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon 5g baking soda
• 1 teaspoon 5g ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon 2.5g ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon 1.25g ground cloves
• 1/2 teaspoon 2.5g salt
• 1/2 cup 120ml coconut oil, melted
• 1 cup 200g brown sugar
• 1/2 cup 120ml pumpkin purée (make sure it's pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie mix)
• 1 tablespoon 15ml vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup 60ml almond milk or any plant-based milk
• 1 cup 175g vegan chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup 60g chopped pecans or walnuts for extra crunch (Optional)

Instructions

• 1 Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet
  with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This helps the cookies bake
  evenly and prevents sticking.
• 2 Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda,
  ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt. This ensures that the
  spices are evenly distributed throughout the cookies.
• 3 Prepare the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat together the melted coconut
  oil and brown sugar until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the pumpkin purée,
  vanilla extract, and almond milk until well combined.
• 4 Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet
  ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this
  can make the cookies tough. Gently fold in the vegan chocolate chips (and nuts
  if you're using them).
• 5 Form and Bake: Scoop out tablespoon-sized dollops of dough and place them on the
  prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches (5 cm) apart. Slightly
  flatten the dough balls with the back of the spoon or your fingers, as they
  won't spread much while baking. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are
  just starting to brown.
• 6 Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5
  minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them
  warm, or store them in an airtight container to enjoy later.
