These pumpkin cookies with frosting are soft, moist, and full of warm fall spices. They are great for fall parties or cozy nights at home because they have a creamy vanilla frosting on top.
Ingredients: 1 cup canned pumpkin puree. 1/2 cup maple syrup. 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 2 cups whole wheat flour. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves. 1 cup powdered sugar. 2 tablespoons non-dairy milk. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 350F 175C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are set and slightly golden around the edges. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. To make the frosting, whisk together powdered sugar, non-dairy milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Once the cookies are completely cooled, spread frosting over the tops of the cookies using a knife or offset spatula. Allow the frosting to set before serving. Enjoy your delicious vegan frosted pumpkin cookies!
