Prep Time 45 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients  

  • 1/2 cup butter (browned)
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1.5 cups gluten free flour blend (can sub all purpose flour)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup dairy free or regular mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Start by browning the butter on the stovetop in a medium saucepan or skillet on medium to low heat. When ready, add the browned butter to a mixing bowl with the coconut and cane sugar. Mix with the whisk attachment for about 1-2 minutes on medium speed to really incorporate the ingredients. 
  • Next, add in the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree and mix once more. 
  • When ready, add in the gluten free flour, baking powder, salt, pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon. Use the paddle attachment to mix the ingredients until they are just combined. Some flour showing is ok. Fold in the chocolate chips and mix once more. 
  • Cover the cookie dough and place in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes. 
  • When ready, preheat the oven to 375F and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. 
  • Then, using a double cookie scoop to scoop the batter and roll into a ball. Flatten with the palm of your hands and place on the prepared baking sheet, top with more chocolate chips if desired and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool for roughly 5-10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack and enjoy. 

Notes

  • Browning the butter takes an additional 10 minutes, it's not required but strongly recommended as it's what set this recipe apart from the rest.
  • Use a light colored pan to brown the butter if you can, otherwise, watch the butter carefully so that it doesn't burn.
  • Use mini chocolate chips for a more uniformed chocolate chip cookie.
  • Add more chocolate chips on top before baking if desired.
