Pumpkin Apple Spice Cookies

These cookies are cakey and soft, like a mini muffin, perfect for breakfast on the go, especially for little ones like my 2 yr. old!

Makes approx. 25-30, 2" cookies



Preheat oven to 350°F

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 can Canned Pumpkin
  • 1 Apple, finely chopped (I use the Ninja)
  • 1/2 cup Oil (Used coconut oil, but you can use vegetable oil)
  • 3/4 cup Brown Sugar - This cookie is not overly sweet, so add more white or brown sugar if you want them sweet like a traditional cookie or muffin
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  •  2 TBSP Ground Flax mixed with 6 TBSP hot water - Equivalent of 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp Ginger
  • 1/4 tsp salt
 *Add  handful of dark chocolate chips for extra yumminess (I didn't this time)

Method:

Mix all of the ingredients together (I used the Kitchen Aid mixer), adjust spices to your taste, and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Roll into golf ball sized dough balls and place on parchment on cookie sheets 

Bake for 15 minutes
