Vegan Pumpkin Snickerdoodles

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
  • 1 flax egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed and water to create your flax egg. Set aside for a few minutes to thicken.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened coconut oil and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the pumpkin puree, prepared flax egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft cookie dough forms. Be cautious not to overmix.
  • In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the coating. Roll tablespoons of dough into balls and then roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat evenly.
  • Place the coated cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart. Gently press each ball down with the back of a fork to create a criss-cross pattern.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
