Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (canned)
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup whole-grain, gluten-free oat flour
  • 3/8 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup vegan, refined sugar-free chocolate chips (such as Enjoy Life or Davis Chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set it aside.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, unsweetened applesauce, and pure vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the whole-grain gluten-free oat flour, pumpkin pie spice, ground cinnamon, and kosher salt into the wet mixture until fully combined.
  4. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the vegan, refined sugar-free chocolate chips into the dough, ensuring an even distribution without overmixing.
  5. Form Dough Balls: Using a small cookie scoop (recommended #60 disher), scoop and form the dough into balls with your hands. If the dough is sticky or hard to handle, refrigerate it for 10 minutes to firm up. Place the dough balls on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet, making approximately 14-15 balls depending on scoop size.
  6. Freeze to Set: Place the baking sheet with the cookie dough balls in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up before serving or storing.

Notes

  • The oat flour used is gluten-free, making this recipe suitable for gluten-sensitive individuals.
  • Refrigerating the dough before forming balls can make shaping easier if the mixture is too sticky.
  • These cookie dough bites are designed to be eaten raw and are not baked, so ensure all ingredients are safe to consume uncooked.
  • Store leftover bites in an airtight container in the freezer or refrigerator to maintain freshness.
