These tender pumpkin-oatmeal cookies have the perfect amount of sweetness from brown sugar and raisins and a slightly nutty flavor from almond butter. Enjoy them as an after-school snack or a healthy dessert. Several testers also said they'd love to eat them with a cup of coffee in the morning.

Ingredients

½ cup unseasoned pumpkin puree
½ cup packed light brown sugar
¼ cup unsweetened almond butter
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup oat flour
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
1 ½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats
½ cup raisins

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine pumpkin, brown sugar, almond butter, egg and vanilla in a small bowl; set aside. Whisk oat flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and ginger in a medium bowl. Stir the pumpkin mixture into the flour mixture. Fold in oats and raisins.
Drop 10 heaping tablespoonfuls of dough about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Slightly flatten, if desired. Bake until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Let cool on the pan for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Tips

Equipment: Parchment paper

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
