Ingredients

  • ¾ cup pumpkin puree
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • First, we are going to remove some of the moisture from the pumpkin puree. Line a bowl with paper towels. Add the pumpkin puree to the bowl and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pumpkin spice, and cinnamon.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and mix on high until incorporated. Add the pumpkin puree and vanilla and mix on high.
  • Add the dry ingredients, and mix on low speed until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Use a cookie scoop to scoop the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, or until set.
  • Remove from the oven, and cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
