A Note from Feedfeed
Snickerdoodles are irresistible in their own right, but the addition of pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice will knock your holiday socks off. Pumpkin purée and coconut oil replace the egg and butter in traditional snickerdoodles to make this sweet and spiced cookie a favorite that everyone can enjoy. They’re also gluten-free!

Recipe Card
For the Cookies
ingredients
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons vegan granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree, room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons gluten free all purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon soy milk, (optional if needed)
For the Pumpkin Spice and Sugar Coating
ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegan granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Set aside a baking sheet for the cookies.
Step 2
Mix together pumpkin spice/sugar coating in a shallow bowl and set aside.
Step 3
Cream together coconut oil and sugar. Add pumpkin puree and vanilla extract and briefly combine.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, mix together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Add to wet ingredients and mix until a cookie dough forms. Add a splash of plant milk if the batter is too dry.
Step 5
Scoop cookie dough into balls (about 1 tbsp in size) and roll in cinnamon sugar mixture. Place on baking sheet and flatten slightly into discs.
Step 6
Bake 10 minutes, until lightly golden and firm around the edges. (The center will still be soft but will firm up as it cools.) Leave on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Let cookies cool completely before eating for best results. Store leftovers in an air-tight container at room temperature, or freeze to be eaten in the future.
