Healthy 4 Ingredient Pumpkin Cookies

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I always love to bake around the fall season, but don’t always love the amount of calories and sugar that comes with that! So I decided to try these healthy 4 ingredient pumpkin cookies out, and thankfully they are delicious!

They, aren’t overly sweet, but still have enough flavor to get you in the fall feels! It’s a super easy recipe and can be made quickly. If you have leftovers, they can even be frozen too! These pumpkin cookies are perfect for a hearty breakfast or a snack. 

And this recipe is completely customizable as well so if you want to add in more or less of something, feel free to do so! For example, if you like cookies on the sweeter side, add in more chocolate chips or maple syrup. 

This is a great base recipe to start with, and you can tinker around with it more to your liking! So, if you’re like me and crave something sweet and pumpkin every single weekend in the fall, try these yummy and healthy cookies out instead!

Ingredients Needed For Healthy 4 Ingredient Pumpkin Cookies

2 1/4 cup rolled or quick oats (I used quick oats)

1 cup pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling

3 TBSP maple syrup

2 tsp pumpkin pie spice 

1/4 cup milk chocolate chips or white chocolate chips, totally optional, but recommended if you want a sweeter cookie

4 Ingredients for Healthy Pumpkin Cookies

How To Make Healthy Pumpkin Cookies

Like I mentioned above, this is the easiest pumpkin cookie recipe you could make! All you need to do is combine the quick oats, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and chocolate chips into a large bowl. I used my KitchenAid Stand Mixer for this since it does create a dense cookie dough. You could also use a hand mixer for this as well if you wanted.

Mixing Pumpkin chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

Then, you just take the dough and make cookie scoops to the size of cookie you want. I made rather large cookie sizes and it gave me a total of 12 cookies from this batch. But if you wanted to do a small cookie scoop, and make more of a mini pumpkin cookie, you could definitely do that too.

Mixing Cookie Dough

I rolled the scoops into balls and then placed them down on a baking sheet. You can place them directly on the sheet, or line with parchment paper. However, I used my Caraway Home Baking Sheet for this, and I never have any problems with cookies sticking to the sheet! They are the best baking pans ever!

Making Healthy Pumpkin Cookies

Also, be sure to press the top of the cookies down into more of a flat shape before baking too. These cookies don’t spread or anything while baking. So they maintain the cookie shape you make when you first place them in the oven. 

Before Baking Pumpkin Cookies

​Bake The Pumpkin Cookies 

While you are making the cookie recipe above, be sure to preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Then, once you have these easy pumpkin cookies assembled, place them in the preheated oven for 9-10 minutes. I did mine for just 9 minutes because I like more soft cookies, but again, it’s totally up to you!

Wide View of Cookies

Remove cookies from cookie sheet. And then, let cookies cool completely on wire rack before enjoying! Also, to store leftover cooled cookies, you can place them in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days. Or place in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to a week.

Overhead View of Cookies

​And, if you want to freeze the cookies, place the cookies in a freezer bag, and store for up to 3 months! That way, you can enjoy these pumpkin chocolate chip cookies whenever you want! Just pop them in the microwave to defrost them and you’re good to go! 

Pumpkin Cookies and Coffee

​Enjoy Your Delicious Cookies

I hope you enjoyed this recipe for yummy soft pumpkin cookies! Let me know if you try them out and what you think of them! And since we are coming up on the pumpkin season, get ready for all things pumpkin coming your way!

Pumpkin Cookies and Coffee Bar

Plus, be sure to check out my recipes I have shared in the past too. Such as my delicious pumpkin bread with cinnamon sugar topping. Or my other pumpkin desserts such as pumpkin pie bars with maple cinnamon topping, and Paula Deen’s Ooey Gooey Pumpkin Cake. Which is easily made from just a box of yellow cake mix and a can of pumpkin puree!

    I love the simplicity of this recipe and the fact that it is healthier than other similar cookies I’ve seen. I can even use sugar-free “maple” syrup if I need to; this is great!
