Makes approximately two dozen pumpkin cookies.

Ingredients

Method

Preheat the oven to 375º F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl: Whisk together almond flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a small bowl: Whisk together oil and honey until smooth, and blended. Then, mix in egg, pumpkin and vanilla.

Add wet ingredients to the dry. Stir to combine well and add in oats, raisins and flaxseed. Stir until everything is combined. Drop the batter by rounded tablespoons two-inches apart on the baking sheets. Flatten the dough with a fork.

Bake the pumpkin cookies for 18-20 minutes (or until the cookies are moist and soft, but appear to be dull on the outside, and are starting to lightly brown). Rotate the baking sheets during baking for even heating (original author suggestion: every 6 minutes). Remove the pumpkin cookies from the baking sheet after a few minutes and allow them to cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
