    Top Tips for the Best Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal Cookies

    If you want them to be fluffy cookies and expand the use the batter right away and bake. Don’t refrigerate the batter.

    If you want them to be more like a melted yet thick cookies (not expanded) refrigerate for atleast 1 hour before baking.

    Avoid using instant oats or quick oats! They are much finer and will behave like flour, thus drying out your dough excessively that won’t stick together. For these cookies, you need to use just old-fashioned rolled oats.

    Don’t use steel cut or Irish cut oats. They’re far too thick so you’ll end making extra crunchy cookies hard to chew. Rather use just rolled oats.

    Using coconut oil and honey gives you a fluffy cookie result.  For a more flattened cookie, use regular sugar and butter instead.

    Notes

    Top Tips:
    • If you want them to be fluffy cookies and expand the use the batter right away and bake. Don’t refrigerate the batter.
    • If you want them to be more like a melted yet thick cookies (not expanded) refrigerate for atleast 1 hour before baking.
    • You must blot the pumpkin to prevent overly cakey (moist and soft) cookies. Using paper towels, gently soak liquid out of the pumpkin puree. Hence, you’ll have denser and chewier cookies! Better to avoid making a cakey cookie.
    • Use a cookie scoop! Once you scoop the ready dough, slightly try to flatten the tops of the dough mounds. The cookies will not expand much if you refrigerate them before hand but flattening them encourages spreading, helping to seal the chewy texture.
    • Avoid using instant oats or quick oats! They are much finer and will behave like flour, thus drying out your dough excessively that won’t stick together. For these cookies, you need to use just old-fashioned rolled oats.
    • Don’t use steel cut or Irish cut oats. They’re far too thick so you’ll end up making extra crunchy cookies hard to chew. Rather use just rolled oats.

      There are no instructions that I can see. I’ve baked these cookies for 15 min and they still have not spread. Did you flatten them first? How long do you cook on a rack or in the pan before you remove them. Incomplete recipes are not helpful.

        Hi, there is a recipe card on the blog with the ingredients and the instructions with tips and nutrition facts. It is at the bottom of the page after the written blog. You can get to it by scrolling down or simply tap “jump to recipe” at the top of any page on my website and it will take you right to the recipe card. I did not flatten them but I have made them 2 ways, one way is by using the batter right away and baking and the other way is by refrigerating the batter for atleast 1 hour and baking. If you refrigerate them they will not spread, if you bake them right away without refrigerating then they will spread and they will be nice and fluffy. I hope that helps and you will see this tip in the recipe card.
