4 step process how to make healthy pumpkin cookies

I do not recommend substituting another flour in this recipe. Almond flour works the best.

How to Store the Cookies

Store the cookies in an airtight container on the counter for 1-2 days, store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

What can I use if I don't have pumpkin pie spice?

If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, you can use a mixture of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg.

      Can I use a sugar substitute instead of coconut sugar?

    These cookies are delicious, SO soft and fluffy - I was shocked!!

    I only had enough almond flour for 1/4 of the recipe (boo!), which got a little difficult with the egg, so I just mixed an egg and measured out 1 TB of it πŸ™‚ and it was perfect! I added a splash of vanilla and dash of cinnamon for fun.

    Once I get more almond flour, I hope to make a full batch of these! Thanks for the recipe!
