PUMPKIN SNICKERDOODLES

Sugar and spice aren't the only things nice in this version of the beloved snickerdoodle: We added pumpkin puree. Besides infusing the cookies with seasonal flavor, it also results in a moist, cakey center. Rolling the dough in spiced sanding sugar lends sparkle and shine.

PUMPKIN SNICKERDOODLES

I found the original recipe for this on Pinterest, I take no claim for the recipe as my own. I did however add one little thing to it to sort of make it my own. I love pumpkin and snickerdoodles have sort of started to grow on me within the past couple years. Adding the two together was just simply amazing. I made these cookies...

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 18

FOR COOKIES
3 3/4 c flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
2 stick butter, room temperature
1 c sugar
1/2 c dark brown sugar
1 c pumpkin puree
1 large egg
2 tsp vanilla extract
dash(es) pumpkin pie spice
FOR THE COATING
1/2 c sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
dash(es) all spice
dash(es) pumpkin pie spice

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pumpkin pie spice. Whisk together to blend. In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugars on medium speed until well combined. Next, still on medium speed, beat in pumpkin. Then, add the egg and vanilla extract. Lastly, add in the dry ingredients. Beat until combined, but do not over mix. Cover the dough, and refrigerate for one hour, until firm.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 3. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. In a small bow, mix together the sugar and spices for the sugar coating. Scoop dough (approximately 2 1/2 tablespoons) and roll into a ball. Rol the dough ball in the sugar mixture, and place on the lined baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. Take a drinking glass with a flat bottom and moisten with water. Dip the glass in the sugar mixture, and use it to flatten the dough balls. Re-sugar the glass as needed.
  • 4. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes (no longer than that. Depending on your oven it make take 10 or the max 12. I did mine at 11 minutes). Remove when the centers of the cookies have set. Let cool on the baking pan for approximately 5 minutes, and then transfer to wire cooling racks to cool completely.

PUMPKIN SNICKERDOODLES RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Pumpkin Snickerdoodles Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by XrayKim

Number Of Ingredients 16

COOKIES
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, room temperature
1 cup granulated white sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
3/4 cup pure unsweetened pumpkin puree
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
ROLLING SUGAR
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon allspice

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the butter until fluffy. Add sugars and pumpkin puree and beat well. Mix in egg and vanilla, scraping down sides of the bowl to incorporate all of the ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and ground cinnamon. Beat flour mixture into liquid mixture a little at a time just until incorporated. Cover dough with plastic and chill at least an hour, or until dough becomes slightly firm. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with nonstick spray. Mix rolling sugar ingredients in a small bowl. Remove cookie dough from refrigerator. Use a medium cookie scoop or a large spoon to scoop out dough and roll into balls. Use your hands to roll the balls in the cinnamon sugar and make sure they're coated really well. Place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Use a glass with a nice, flat bottom to dip in sugar and flatten the balls. Bake at 350°F. for 10 to 14 minutes, or until they are slightly firm to the touch. Let cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes or so, then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely. Tips: *Store in an airtight container. *These cookies freeze well *10 minutes for soft cookies, 15 for crisper cookies, not much spread *Occasionally, I have added some pumpkin pie spice instead of individual spices

Tips for Making Pumpkin Snickerdoodles:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. If you're using canned pumpkin puree, make sure it's pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will result in tough cookies. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown. Don't overbake the cookies, or they'll be dry.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before enjoying them. This will help the cookies set and firm up.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also store them in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin snickerdoodles are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. With their soft and chewy texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and hints of pumpkin and cinnamon, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone. Whether you're looking for a festive holiday cookie or a simple snack to enjoy on a chilly afternoon, pumpkin snickerdoodles are the perfect choice. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet and satisfying, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
