Scale
- 2 1/4 cups almond flour
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
- In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Continue to stir and cook until it reaches a dark color. This should take about 10 minutes.
- Pour melted browned butter into a glass and place in the fridge to cool for about 20 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
- In a larger bowl, whisk browned butter with brown sugar until combined. Add egg, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie puree and mix well.
- Slowly pour dry ingredients into the large bowl and combine. Your batter should be manageable. If it is still too wet, add some more almond flour.
- Form into balls using a cookie scoop or clean hands. Dip the balls in cinnamon sugar and then flatten them onto a baking sheet about 3 inches apart.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges of the cookies start to darken.
