Soft Pumpkin Spice Cookies

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and prepare your KPKitchen stainless steal cookie tray with your KPKitchen silicone cookie liner.

2. First make your flax egg. Add your ground flax and 1.5 tablespoons of water. Mix until fully incorporated. Set aside.

3. In this recipe, it’s best to use pumpkin puree that has had some moisture removed from it.

   To do this, blot your pumpkin puree with paper towel to rid the excess moisture. Set aside.

4. Next, make your cinnamon streusel topping. To do this, combine all of the cinnamon streusel ingredients in a small bowl and mix until a crumble forms. Set aside.

   

5. Next, in a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk all your dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon and all spice.) Set aside.

   

6. Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer, cream your butter and sugar until smooth.
   

7. Next, add your maple syrup. Continue mixing until fully incorporated. Next add your flax egg (ground flax and water mixture) and mix until fully incorporated. Finally, add your pumpkin puree and mix until fully incorporated.

8. Slowly add the flour mixture to your pumpkin mixture and mix until a dough forms.
   

9. Roll 2 tablespoons of dough into balls and place them on your prepared cookie tray. (Note, the dough will be sticky. You may want to flour your hands for this.)

10. Using your KPKitchen tablespoon measuring spoon, press down the centre of each cookie dough ball to form a shallow hole.

11. Fill each hole with cinnamon streusel topping.
    

    

12. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
    

13. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to your KPKitchen cooling rack.

    

14. Enjoy!
