Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (120 ml) almond butter (creamy, unsweetened)
- ½ cup (100 g) brown sugar (light)
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup (60 ml) pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup (30 g) almond flour
- 2 tsps pumpkin pie spice
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup (85 g) mini marshmallows (vegan)
- ½ cup (85 g) chocolate chips or chunks (semi-sweet)
Instructions
- Oven Preparation: Preheat oven to 375°F and line baking sheet with parchment paper for effortless cookie release.
- Wet Ingredient Fusion: Whisk almond butter, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and egg until achieving a smooth, harmonious blend with luxurious texture.
- Dry Ingredient Combination: Mix almond flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl, creating an aromatic dry foundation.
- Dough Assembly: Merge dry and wet ingredients, folding gently until a uniform dough emerges. Incorporate chocolate chips throughout the mixture, distributing evenly.
- Cookie Formation: Using a cookie scoop, craft individual portions and strategically embed vegan mini marshmallows within each cookie, ensuring partial exposure for visual appeal.
- Baking Process: Position cookie portions on prepared baking sheet, optionally embellishing with additional chocolate chips. Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until edges turn golden and centers solidify.
- Cooling Technique: Remove from oven and allow cookies to rest momentarily on baking sheet for structural stabilization, then transfer to cooling rack for complete temperature reduction.
- Serving Suggestion: Present these indulgent pumpkin s’mores cookies either warmly fragrant or at room temperature, celebrating the essence of seasonal comfort.
Notes
- Butter Blending Tip: Whisk wet ingredients vigorously to create a smooth, emulsified base that ensures even distribution of flavors and a consistent cookie texture.
- Flour Mixing Trick: Sift dry ingredients together to prevent clumping and guarantee a uniform spice blend throughout the cookie dough.
- Marshmallow Placement Strategy: Gently press marshmallows halfway into the dough to prevent burning and create a perfect gooey center during baking.
- Cooling Technique: Allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes after removing from the oven to help them set and prevent crumbling when transferred to a cooling rack.
