These gluten free pumpkin cookies are super simple to make, easy and delicious! The creamy almond butter with the pure pumpkin puree with chocolate chips are oh so delicious! These paleo pumpkin cookies are naturally dairy free and paleo friendly.

What makes these gluten free pumpkin cookies so good?

  • These flourless pumpkin cookies are super soft and most.
  • This recipe seriously only takes minutes to prep!

Key ingredients for gluten free pumpkin cookies:

  • Almond butter-Make sure it is the creamy kind! I prefer not to have the chunks in it. Another thing to note, be sure to check the ingredients. Some nut butter brands contain additives, make sure that there is nothing else in with the nut butter. A little salt is ok!
  • Maple syrup-To sweeten the cookies. 
  • Pumpkin puree-Make sure to get the puree and not the pumpkin pie filling. They are both very different! Also note if there are any other ingredients in it. It should be just plain pumpkin. 
  • Vanilla-To add to the flavor.
  • Egg-To bind everything together. 
  • Chocolate chips-I like enjoy life chocolate chips because they are dairy free, but any kind will work!

Can I freeze these flourless pumpkin cookies?

  • Yes! For sure, make sure that the cookies cool completely prior to transferring. 
  • Line a container with wax paper and lay out the cookies. In between layers of the cookies, add another layer of wax paper. 

Can I substitute peanut butter for almond butter?

  • Absolutely! However, note the flavor of almond butter is a bit milder than peanut butter, peanut butter may mask the almond butter taste.

    Pumpkin cookies were easy to make, soft with the perfect balance of pumpkin and chocolate :). I made them without the chocolate drizzle.

    Really easy to make. Chewy and healthier version of the sugar loaded ones we are used to.

Hi, I’m Allianna. In my junior year of college I turned to Sarah Ballantyne’s Paleo Protocol and it saved my life. During that time I completely shifted and started to manage my autoimmune disease with food and lifestyle. Since then I have made it my mission to share my clean and real food recipes with you. On Allianna’s Kitchen you can expect to find paleo, Whole30, and AIP recipes as well as things I have learned along the way as my body has healed. I’m so excited to have you here.
