- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger

- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add in the egg, vanilla extract, and pumpkin puree. Mix until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Drop tablespoon-sized scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underdone.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Optionally, top with whipped cream or frosting before serving.
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- For extra flavor, drizzle with maple glaze or cream cheese frosting.
- You can freeze the dough balls and bake them fresh as needed.
