I have enjoyed all the pumpkin recipes I have made recently, but this is my absolute favorite so far. These cookies are chewy gems full of the wonderful medley of pumpkin, spices, and oats. They would make wonderful breakfast treats. I love that these are low fat and full of the goodness of oats and pumpkin. I used oat flour and substituted pumpkin pie spice for the cloves and nutmeg. I might have to try these with chocolate chips next time!

All of your pumpkin recipes are SO welcome right now. For the first time in too many years I had a garden. The first plants to come up were a mystery plant that sprouted from my compost before I ever planted a seed. I let them have their way in a corner of the garden and they turned out to be PUMPKINS!
So now I have four nice pumpkins to cook with and your recipes and theme are much welcomed.
