Soft Baked Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies [gluten-free + dairy-free]
Soft baked pumpkin chocolate chip cookies made with almond flour, oat flour, pumpkin, and vegan protein powder! Gluten-free, dairy-free, and no added sugar.
You all know my obsession with pumpkin and that I eat it year-round. But in the fall, I ramp things up and pretty much make pumpkin snacks and treats ALL the time. ‘Tis the season…Am I right?Your new favorite fall dessert!
Today’s treat (healthy cookies!!) came about simply by mixing some of my favorite baking ingredients together and hoping for the best. I love it when I do this, and the results turn out BETTER than expected. The Soft Baked Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies I am sharing today are the PERFECT fall cookie. Soft and fluffy, subtly sweet, and a rich buttery texture thanks to the almond flour. They’re also gluten-free, dairy-free, fairly high in protein, have no added sugar, and are less than 100 calories per cookie!

Scale
- 1/2 cup liquid egg whites

- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup pumpkin purée
- 1/4 cup No Cow vegan vanilla protein powder

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except the chocolate chips. Stir until evenly combined, avoiding lumps. Spray your hands with cooking spray or coat with flour and divide the batter into 8 even balls on the parchment paper. Press down slightly to flatten. Top with chocolate chips and bake for 9 minutes.

Notes
If you’re used to normal baked goods and sweets, definitely add the maple syrup or monkfruit so these are the appropriate level of sweetness for you. I am used to baked goods with minimal sweetness so these are good for me as they are, but most people will need the extra sweetness.
