Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Soft Pumpkin Cookies with Cinnamon Frosting
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of pumpkin puree, 1 cup of sugar, ½ cup of melted vegan butter or coconut oil, and ¼ cup of plant-based milk. Stir until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1 tablespoon of cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon of salt.
- Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just incorporated.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop and drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes, or until they are lightly golden at the edges yet still soft in the center.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together 2 cups of powdered sugar, ½ cup of softened vegan butter, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon until fluffy.
- Once the cookies are cool, generously spread the cinnamon frosting over the top of each cookie.
