  • ½ tsp cinnamon

  • ½ tsp sea salt

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ cup pumpkin purée

Instructions

  2. In a large bowl, mix with a standing mixer until thoroughly combined, about 5 minutes.

  3. Add the vanilla extract and pumpkin purée to the same bowl and blend until combined. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until combined.

  4. Form the dough into a large ball or two smaller balls and cover it with a dry cloth. Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours to set up.

  5. Preheat the oven to 180°C.

  6. Shape the dough into desired shapes and place the cookies on a baking tray.

  7. Return to the fridge for 10 minutes to ensure the dough is very cold. Bake for 10-13 minutes for smaller cookies and 12-15 minutes for larger cookies.

  8. Remove and let cool. Lightly decorate with cream cheese frosting on top and sprinkle with pumpkin spice.

    Tip for orange natural frosting. Add 1-2 tsp sea Buckthorn powder to the frosting.

    Serve and enjoy!
