Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookies
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup salted butter, very softened (partially melted)
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup canned pumpkin, drain liquid
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour, or gluten free all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp cream of tartar
Spiced Sugar Coating
- 1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice, or ground cinnamon
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine both sugars and butter in a large mixing bowl using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer.
Add in the egg, drained pumpkin puree (squeeze out the liquid in a paper towel) and vanilla extract.
Mix and once combined, fold in the dry ingredients.
Chill the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Scoop about 1.5 tbsp of cookie dough and roll the dough into a ball. Coat in the pumpkin spice and sugar mixture.
Place the cookie dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper leaving about 2-3 inches between each cookie.
Bake for 11-13 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes on the tray before transferring to a cooling rack.
Enjoy!
