To create the perfect pumpkin oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, start by combining the dry ingredients. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. This combination not only enhances the flavor of the cookies but also ensures an even distribution of the leavening agents, which is essential for achieving a uniform texture. Properly mixing your dry ingredients prevents clumps and ensures that every bite is just as delicious as the last.

Ingredients
  

1 cup of canned pumpkin puree

1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup of brown sugar, packed

1/4 cup of granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1 cup of all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon of baking powder

1 teaspoon of baking soda

1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon of salt

2 cups of rolled oats

1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Optional: 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Cream together until light and fluffy. Add in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt.

        Add Dry to Wet: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

          Fold in Oats and Chips: Gently fold in the rolled oats and semi-sweet chocolate chips. If using nuts, add them in at this stage.

            Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie, as they will spread.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.

                Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Enjoy: Once cooled, enjoy your delicious Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
