These aren't cookies or muffins.. perhaps a scone? OR, a POWER PUCK!
I had a pumpkin to roast, so I scoured all of my cook books looking for the base of a recipe that would help me with my craving of the pumpkin oatmeal cookie they bake at Flying M. I found nothing in my cookbooks, so I went to the inter webs and created a mesh mash of several recipes. Here's mine. Enjoy~
Preheat oven to 350
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper, silplat sheets, or lightly oiled
1 C oat flour
1 C rolled oats
1TBSP ground flax meal
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
dash of each ginger, cardamon, clove and nutmeg
~ Mix together until combined with a fork
1/3 C coconut oil (refined) melted
1 C pumpkin or squash puree
1/2 sugar (I used sucanat) you could use maple syrup or honey or..
1 tsp vanilla
~ Mix together until well combined, add dry ingredients to wet
1/2 C chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, sunflower seeds)
1/2 C dried fruit (raisins, cherries, choc chips, coconut)
~ Let mixture sit for 5 minutes
~ scoop out 1/4 C onto cookie sheets, pat down to flatten into 1" pucks
~ Cook for 15 minutes, rotating pan halfway through cooking.
These pucks are moist and may be a bit crumbly. Let them cool a bit before you transfer to a cooling rack
