Oftentimes oatmeal cookies get a bad rap but these decadent pumpkin oatmeal cookies will not disappoint! This recipe written by Dorothy Kern from Crazy for Crust, is a sweet delicious treat perfect for all of your fall gatherings. You might as well make a double batch, because these cookies will be flying off the plate!

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 ½ cups (186g) Flourish flour

1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened

1 ½ cups (300g) packed brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 ¼ cups (260g) quick cooking oats

Instructions:

Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin spice, salt, baking soda, and Flourish flour. Set aside.

Step 2: In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. (You can use a hand mixer for this or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment.)

Step 3: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the oats until combined.

Step 4: Scoop the dough into 2-tablespoon-sized balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.

Step 5: Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Place the chilled cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 6: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 7: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
