Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter
- ¾ cup brown sugar packed
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¾ cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- ⅛ tsp ground ginger
- 2 ¼ cups flour
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup quick oats
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease baking sheets with cooking spray and set aside.
- Cut the butter into pieces and add to a light colored 10-inch skillet. Heat over medium heat, stirring so the butter melts and cooks evenly.
- As the butter cooks, constantly and slowly stir with a silicone spatula. As it melts, it will foam and sizzle as water evaporates. Keep stirring and stay close—this stage is quick (anywhere from 5 to 8 minute). When the butter solids are browned and golden and it smells caramelly and fragrant, immediately remove from the heat. Pour the butter into a large bowl.
- Add in the brown sugar, sugar, pumpkin puree, egg yolk, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and ground ginger in with the butter. Whisk to combine.
- Add the flour, rolled oats, quick oats, and chocolate chips. Stir until evenly combined and no dry streaks remain.
- Scoop the dough with a cookie scoop and place several inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
- Lightly press the cookie dough balls until they are slightly flattened. You want a thick disc-shape.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 11 to 12 minutes. Let the cookies rest a few minutes on the baking sheets before removing them to a cooling rack.
