I love the traditional chocolate no bake cookies, I could eat a dozen at a time, that’s why I don’t make them very often. I was doing some recipe searching on Swagbucks and found this recipe for No-Bake Pumpkin Oatmeal cookies. I had to try them. I didn’t change the recipe much except I used my pumpkin puree instead of canned.
You’ll need:
3/4 cup quick cooking oats
1/2 cup oat flour (I made it by using my food processor with quick cooking oats, worked perfectly)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup sucanat/sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 – 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips (optional…always welcome in my recipes)
1/3 cup pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin
2 tablespoons milk (as needed)
1 tablespoon expeller pressed coconut oil/oil of your choice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
First I used my food processor to make the oat flour, so simple wish I had known this earlier. I love oats.
In a large bowl mix all the dry ingredients.
In a small bowl mix all the rest of the ingredients.
Combine everything together.
Put the cookie dough in the refrigerator to chill.
Shape into small cookies. Store in the refrigerator so they don’t get sticky. They taste kind of like raw cookie dough which I guess it is. Almost seemed wrong to eat it, but since there is no raw egg it’s ok. Very satisfying treat. I would make these again. Super simple 
I share at these creative parties!

Some days, a no bake cookie is exactly what I need. I’ve never tried pumpkin no bake before, though. This sounds wonderful! I hope you’ll share it on my one-time-only fall food link up today, we’d love to have you!

Question: I don’t know much about baking, but why baking soda if they’re not baked?
