A soft-baked, cinnamon sugar topped snickerdoodle cookie with pumpkin added in for extra fall flair. This vegan, gluten-free, single cookie recipe is ready for warm-from-the-oven devouring in no time!
Now I don’t know if it was my actual tastebuds talking or the current pumpkin craze, but the pumpkin version was kinda sorta a whole lot more delicious!
Plus I haven’t posted anything pumpkin in like…okay fine it’s been less than a week. But it’s October so that means it’s acceptable to post all pumpkin all the time. At least I hope so. Otherwise I have some major content calendar revising to do.
You may be thinking “Another oversized cookie on a Monday?” But of course you are thinking that in an excited tone not an exasperated one, right? If there is anything Monday needs, it’s more exceptionally large and quick to make baked goods. Healthy-ish dessert the size of a hockey puck–I can’t imagine a better way to kick off the week.
No sprinkles or frosting or movie tie-in this time, but this cookie doesn’t need all that. Because it has something else. Something wonderful. Cinnamon sugar!
Soft and chewy. Drowned in lightly sprinkled with cinnamon sugar before baking. Only 6 ingredients. A single cookie recipe means you get to enjoy the entire batch at peak warm-from-the-oven freshness. Ready in 12 minutes. Happier Monday friends.
