Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, egg, egg whites, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and sweetener until smooth and well combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the oats, flour, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Stir gently to blend. Add the chopped dark chocolate to the dry mixture and stir again to distribute evenly.
- Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until fully incorporated. Refrigerate the batter for 15 minutes to allow the oats to hydrate and the dough to firm slightly.
- Line a 9 x 13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a 1.35-oz cookie scoop or large spoon, portion 16 cookies into 4 rows of 4, leaving space between each.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the tops are set, lightly browned, and the texture feels firm and cakey.
- Allow to cool slightly, then enjoy warm or store in an airtight container.
