Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the cooled melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  • Add the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree to the sugar mixture. Whisk until thoroughly blended.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until no dry flour remains. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour.

Baking

  • Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine the sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl for the coating.
  • Roll the chilled dough into small balls and coat in the sugar mixture before placing them on prepared baking sheets, spaced out.
  • Bake for 11-13 minutes until edges are set, and centers are slightly under-baked.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for five minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
