Make Cookie Dough
Place the pumpkin in a shallow bowl lined with paper towels. Then, gently blot with additional paper towels to remove the moisture. Do this until the paper towel is lightly moistened and not soaked when dabbed onto the puree. Less moisture equal chewier cookies.
oz pumpkin puree
In a medium bowl, stir together flour, oats, pumpkin spice, baking soda, and salt.
oz whole wheat flour
oz old-fashioned whole rolled oats
tsp baking soda
tsp pumpkin spice
tsp fine sea salt
Using a separate bowl hand whisk pumpkin puree, melted butter, egg yolk, vanilla, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and maple syrup until well combined.

Chill Cookie Dough
Using a 2 Tbsp cookie scoop, measure and scoop dough onto cookie sheets.
Loosely cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for one hour. Chilling firms the butter and allows the oats to soak up moisture.
Bake
Preheat the oven to 350℉ (180℃) and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Place cookies two inches apart on prepared cookie sheets. Gently flatten dough balls and shape into round cookies with your finger tips.
Bake for 16-18 minutes on the middle rack until browned on the edges. They may still look soft in the very center, but will firm as they cool. Don't over bake!
Let pan cool for 5 minutes on wire rack, then transfer cookies from pan directly to the wire rack to cool completely.
