Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Set this aside as we prepare the wet ingredients.
- In another bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until it’s light and fluffy. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Add in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- Gradually work in the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until everything is just combined—don’t overmix, y’all!
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop dollops of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each dollop because they’ll spread out a bit.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set. You want them to be soft in the center, so keep an eye on them!
- Once done, let the whoopie pies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once they have cooled down, you can whip up some cream cheese frosting to slather between two of these delightful pies for the ultimate treat. Enjoy every single bite and share them with loved ones—you won’t regret it!
