Well happy official fall! In my opinion there is no such thing as too much pumpkin anything once fall starts. I have been wanting to make a low carb Paleo pumpkin cookie for quite some time now but its seems like every recipe I have attempted is more like a breakfast bread cookie with just a hint of pumpkin. I wanted to make a pumpkin cookie that was moist, soft and sweet and tasted just like a pumpkin pie. Well these are exactly that and they will make your taste buds do a happy dance. My boys basically fought over the last of these cookies and that is always a good sign since they are my official taste testers.
What you will need:
- 1 cup of almond butter
- 1 cup of almond flour
- 3/4 cup of pumpkin puree
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp of baking soda
- 5 tbs of coconut sugar + a little extra to sprinkle on top
- 1 tsp of vanilla
- 1 tbs of pumpkin pie spice
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Combine all of the above ingredients together in a bowl. Mix well until you have a sticky dough.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and drop rounded tbs size cookies onto the sheet.
- Use a the bottom of a glass or the back of a spoon to gently flatten out each cookie.
- Sprinkle a tiny bit of coconut sugar on top of the cookies.
- Bake for 13 minutes or until edges are golden.
- Enjoy!

YUM. These sound so good. I have loved every cookie recipe from your site so I am going to try these next!
I'm obsessed with every cookie recipe you post, so I'm totally trying these. All I need is that coconut sugar!
These are in the oven as I type and they smell delicious!
These look awesome linds. Hope you had a great weekend.
made them tonight...looks like a cookie, tastes like a cookie--so happy! this is the first treat that I've had in 45 days that doesn't taste like a "diet cookie".
Can you please post the nutritional content?
This makes me SO excited for fall! Anything pumpkin really! ;)
Made these yesterday as I was craving something pumpkin and came across your blog. Had to make with stevia, but are great!!!
I subbed 1/4 maple syrup for the coconut sugar and added a handful of dark chocolate chips (because that's how I roll!) It's been pumpkin protein punch breakfast cookies with my coffee this week! (Because seriously, I have a hard enough time getting the kids ready and fed in the morning...) Thanks for the recipe!
Hi! I felt I had to comment because I am benefitting so much from your wonderful recipes and tips. Thank you so much for making Paleo living easy and fun! I eat Paleo for digestive reasons and it has caused such a phenomenal transformation in my overall health. Your blog really helps me stay on track and opens my eyes to new ideas for cooking and better living. I haven't tried this pumpkin pie cookie recipe yet, but I hope to soon! :) Thank you for all you do!! And P.S. your boys are so sweet and adorable!
Just made these and they are delicious! Glad I can enjoy some pumpkin baked good with very little sugar :) THANKS for the recipe!
Yum, yum, yum! Thanks for the awesome recipe!
These look yummy... how many do these make? And is it possible to roll the dough and use a pumpkin shaped cookie cutter? :)
SO good! I was surprised how good these were, because it seemed too simple! I did 2/3 cup almond butter and 1/3 cup applesauce since I don't love a strong almond butter taste and it worked well, although quite a bit runnier than you're much prettier ones! I also added chocolate chunks. Thanks for the great recipe!!
How do you make your cookies look so nice?! I tried to flatten my cookies with a spoon and the bottom of the glass and they both would stick to the batter. Any tips? Even though they were not pretty, there were delicious!
These were awesome. Turned out so yummy and soft! I will definitely make again! Love your recipes :)
My batter was very runny, there was no way it would form cookies (I am thinking the almond butter was more liquidy), but I poured it in a baking pan and made pumpkin bread instead which turned out pretty well.
