Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats
1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)
1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

- In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture is well-combined and heated through.
- Remove the pan from heat and stir in the oats until they’re fully coated with the pumpkin mixture.
- If desired, fold in the shredded coconut and chopped nuts for added texture.

- Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes to set before enjoying.
Notes
Use certified gluten-free oats to keep the cookies gluten-free.
For extra sweetness, adjust the maple syrup or add honey or agave syrup to taste.
These cookies can be frozen for up to 3 months—just store them in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers.
