These pumpkin spice cookies have the perfect texture and are topped with a maple glaze that's just right.
Ingredients
For the Cookies:
- ⅔ cup vegan buttery spread
- ½ cup light brown sugar or coconut sugar
- ½ cup organic cane sugar
- ½ cup pure pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups gluten free flour blend I like Namaste Perfect Flour Blend, You can also use all-purpose flour if you are not gluten free.
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ginger
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
For the Glaze:
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 Tablespoon maple syrup
- 1-2 Tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the vegan buttery spread and the sugars in a mixing bowl and beat until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and the pumpkin puree and mix until combined.
- Add the dry ingredients a little at a time while mixing on low speed. This dough will be thick.
- Scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-14 minutes. Do not over bake. Allow the cookies to cool while you make the glaze.
- Make the glaze: Place the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and one tablespoon of water in a small mixing bowl. Mix until combined. If you want the glaze to be thicker, add a bit more water.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies. Allow the glaze to firm up a bit before enjoying the cookies!
