Happy Sunday! I’ve now baked a full weeks worth of cookies and I’m not tired of sugar yet. I decided to still participate in #SundaySupper while I’m vegan MoFo’ing (Vegan Month Of Food) so it’s not really a surprise that when the theme “Squash Fest” came up that I would choose pumpkin. I’ve made so many pumpkin cookies in the past, I just wanted something plain that was fluffy like a cloud.
 
Pumpkin Spice Cookies like these are rarely crispy because of the pumpkin, and in order to keep their shape I store them back in the fridge for a bit before baking. I actually don’t get a lot of spreading with my cookies and margarine choice (Earth Balance) so yours might spread a bit, and that’s okay! They still have the same great pumpkin flavour. It’s all about the spices.

Pumpkin cookies are one of my favorites for sure! I love how fluffy yours turned out…I’d eat the entire batch I’m sure…
Your cookies look delish! I love that they are vegan. Great recipe!
These look like they would hold up to coffee dunking! Well done.

Full on fall flavors are in these delightful little cookies, yummy!!
Love these! 🙂 can I ask you a question… why do vegan cookies puff up? I have zero experience with vegan baking so this has been something on my mind. 🙂
Thanks for sharing!
Hey Alice, a lot of vegan cookies spread fine. Mine just don’t usually though. This one doesn’t spread much because of my margarine (Earth Balance) and putting them in the fridge before cooking), but your mileage may vary!

A whole week of cookies – how great! And also great that you found a way to crisp up these cookies too.
