Vegan Pumpkin Cookies with Maple Glaze
First up, let me show you what these beauties look like!
Now that we’ve got your attention, let’s get to the good stuff. Here are your ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour (all-purpose or gluten-free)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
With your ingredients in hand, it’s time to whip up these delightful cookies.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix it well until everything is nicely blended.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just incorporated. If you’re feeling fancy, fold in those chopped nuts for some extra crunch!
- Scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie since they’ll spread a little while baking.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the maple glaze, mix up a simple glaze with powdered sugar and a splash of maple syrup until you get a drizzly consistency. Drizzle it over your cookies once they’ve cooled, and voilà!
And there you have it — Vegan Pumpkin Cookies with Maple Glaze that are easy to make and oh-so-delicious. Enjoy them with a cup of tea or coffee, and share them with those you love!
