Gluten Free Pumpkin Cookies!

There are so many signs that it’s fall time again from the changing color of the leaves to seeing big yellow school busses carrying dozens of children.

However, the biggest sign that we have all come to associate with the fall season is PUMPKIN! Pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin bread, pumpkin smelling candles, and most important – Gluten Free Pumpkin Cookies!

We wanted the cookie to also be appealing to the eye with a strong orange color and a real kick of pumpkin flavor, so we also used pumpkin puree. The puree created a moistness I had yet to taste in any cookie I’ve eaten. The cookie gave a good bite with some chew and then it just melted in my mouth.
