Paleo Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
These soft and chewy paleo pumpkin cookies are delish! And they are filled with fall spices and chocolate chips! A crisp cookie crust on the outside and a warm chewy, soft inside. These cookies are the kind that make you want to cuddle up with a cup of tea, a good book, and one or two more cookies…:)
Paleo pumpkin cookies are grain free, paleo, healthy, super duper easy to make!
And a delicious paleo desert or snack.
For any occasion really.
But since it is fall…
They will be perfect for any upcoming holiday parties!
For me, a step in releasing everything and just being in the moment comes from being in the kitchen.
This fall has got me all wrapped up in all the lovely spices.
I am obsessed with all things pumpkin. If ya couldn’t tell;)
And I am happy and content to focus on creating a joyful atmosphere around me.
all the fall things
Food brings joy. Food gives life.
And making yummy fall inspired pumpkin cookies is the best!
Baking is a way for me to recognize be thankful for all the little details.
Details that go unnoticed most days.
The simple comfort of toasty cinnamon spiced air.
Yeah, it’s pretty great!
Warm and cosy sweaters.
Slipper covered feet moving around in the kitchen.
Gentle tunes…
And sometimes loud tunes that are joined by joyful singing.
All these things made today stellar.

Ingredients
|
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a standard baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl or KitchenAid mixer, combine all of the ingredients (except the chocolate chips).
- Once the dough is completely smooth, fold in the chocolate chips.
- Using an ice-cream scoop, scoop one spoonful of dough onto the cookie sheet at a time to form the cookies.
- Bake the cookies on 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Once the cookies have cooked, let the set for a few minutes until they become firm. This allows the sugars and oils to harden, so the cookie doesn't fall apart.

Is there anything we can sub the palm oil shortening for?
I am not sure, because I have not tried it. But if you are up for an experiment, You could try coconut oil- I would use just a little over half the amount of oil though, because coconut oil is more “liquidy” than palm. You could also sub it same measurement for butter or any other shortening.
Hey Misha,
I was checking out your instagram feed and I love what you are doing. You have an azing eye for photography. Keep up all the great work!
I own cavenchocolate.com and make Raw Organic Paleo Chocolate bars without cane sugar. I’d like to see if it would be possible to partner with you? Would you be interested in some free chocolate bars in exchange for an instagram/blog post?

That sounds great! Would you like for me to incorporate the chocolate into a recipe? I am super stocked about your product and what you are doing, it sounds amazing! Cant wait to check it out for myself:)
Can you substitute the almond flour for a different nut flour? I have a sensitivity to almonds 🙁
I am not sure… I haven’t tried any other flour. You can experiment with any other kind of nut flour (except coconut flour, which wont work).
Hey! So I made these but they came out a little too mushy. Any tips on getting them to be the right consistency?
Hi Lavanya, it sounds like they just needed more time in the oven. 🙂
Egg replacement to make these vegan?
Hi Santana, I would try a flax egg. 🙂
