    How to Make Pumpkin White Chocolate Chip Cookies 

    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with non-stick spray.. (To get best results, use parchment paper)
    2. Whisk together flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Set aside.
    3. In another large bowl, using an electric mixer at medium speed, beat together the butter, and sugars until smooth and mixed together well.
    4. Add the egg and vanilla and mix on low speed until mixed in.
    5. Gradually add the flour mixture and mix in until just incorporated. Do not keep mixing - do not overmix.
    6. Add chocolate chips and stir with a wooden spoon, again no overmixing, just until incorporated.
    7. Using a small or large ice cream scoop or heaping tablespoon, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, 6 to 8 per pan, depending on size you are making. Add chocolate chips or add-ins on top if desired. Press down cookies slightly. Bake 13-15 minutes.
    8. Let the cookies cool for 5-10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
    9. Makes  18 -30 cookies depending on size.

    Baking Tips

    • Flour Tips: Don't over-mix cookie batter especially after the flour is added and add it gradually.
    • Make sure your baking soda is not expired.
    • If you don't have pumpkin spice, just use 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, ½ teaspoon nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ginger and ⅛ teaspoon cloves, or just use 2 teaspoons of cinnamon to get some spice going on!
    • Bake 13-15 minutes for soft, moist cookie texture.  In my opinion, this is the best texture for these big cookies.
    • Remember, if cookies appear too jiggly, bake them a little longer.  The cookies will continue baking and setting up for a few minutes, once you remove them from the oven.  Allow for that extra time before transferring them to a baking rack or the cookies will break apart.
    • Since these cookies have pumpkin in them, these cookies will retain more moisture than regular oatmeal cookies.  So you also do not want to under-bake these too much, but keep in mind not to overbake them too much either.

    Storing Pumpkin White Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies 

    • I prefer to store these cookies in a zip-lock or sealed container in fridge.  They will stay fresher and longer up to 4-5 days.
    • Just eat them right out of the fridge or warm them in the microwave for 10-12 seconds for a dreamy, warm cookie like it's right out of oven, oozing with melty white chocolate and all the scents of fall.  Dip them in some milk or enjoy with a hot cup of coffee.
