Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter (room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 flax egg (1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 Tablespoons water)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
  • 1 1/2 cups + 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • Vegan whipped cream for topping
  • Pumpkin pie spice for sprinkling on top

Instructions

  1. Prepare the flax egg by mixing one tablespoon of ground flaxseed with three tablespoons of water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until thickened.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together room temperature vegan butter and both sugars until fluffy. Mix in the flax egg and vanilla.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. For the filling, mix pumpkin puree, maple syrup, oat milk, cornstarch, and additional pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop cookie dough onto a lined baking sheet, flatten slightly, and place a teaspoon of filling in the center. Fold edges over to cover.
  6. Sprinkle with sugar and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden around the edges.
