Fall recipes are made with the best spices. Such as cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice and cloves. AKA everything in pumpkin pie spice.

I think it is fun to make your own pumpkin pie spice tailored to your own tastes, which is what I did here.

But whether you make your own pumpkin pie spice or use a pre-made pumpkin pie spice, these healthy soft pumpkin cookies are amazing and have SO much great flavor.

Ingredient tips for these Paleo pumpkin chocolate chip cookies:

Pumpkin Pie Spice– instead of using ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves, you can just use 2-3 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice.

Cinnamon-if you are going to use cinnamon, make sure to use Ceylon cinnamon, it has the best flavor and more health benefits than Cassia cinnamon, which is the type of cinnamon usually sold at the grocery store.

Almond flour- I usually prefer using blanched almond flour for recipes, but I’ve made these with almond meal and they worked out great! They just come out darker in color.

Coconut oil– make sure the melt your coconut oil prior to measuring it. You only need 1 Tablespoon of melted coconut oil here.

How to make these Healthy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies:

In one bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, coconut oil, and maple syrup together with a fork. Then add the vanilla and egg and mix again.

Lastly, add the cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and ground cloves ( or pumpkin pie spice) and mix into the pumpkin mixture.

Then mix the dry ingredients together in another bowl. This includes the almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca flour, baking soda, and salt.

Mix the dry ingredients into the wet pumpkin mixture and then fold in some dairy-free chocolate chips.

Then, take heaping tablespoon sized spoonfuls of the dough, and roll them into balls in between your hands, and place them onto the cookie sheet. It helps to do this with slightly wet hands.

Lightly press down on the cookies with the back of a spoon.

Then bake them for 13- 16 minutes. The length of time depends on your oven. The cookies in these photos cooked in 13-14 minutes in my current oven, but they have taken 16-17 minutes in a different oven.

Once these healthy soft pumpkin cookies are out of the oven, let them sit on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before removing from the pan.

And that’s it!

Yummy Paleo Pumpkin Pie Chocolate Chip Cookies will be ready and waiting for you.

They are a wonderful Fall cookie that I’ve made for many a Thanksgiving or Fall event.

They truly taste like a pumpkin pie chocolate chip cookie combination, but they have the added benefit of being Paleo, grain-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, and refined-sugar free.
