½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
¼ cup chocolate chips(optional)
¼ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix the wet ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the dry ingredients: Add the rolled oats, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the wet mixture. Stir until the dough forms.
Fold in the extras: If using, fold in chocolate chips and chopped nuts.
Scoop and shape: Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Slightly flatten the cookies with the back of a spoon.
