Ingredients
1/4 cup salted butter
1/3 cup monk fruit–erythritol granulated sweetener (or other 1:1 cup equivalency sweetener0
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups almond flour
1 cup gluten-free baking blend1:1 cup equivalency or additional almond flour
Preheat the oven to 350 F degrees. Line a large baking sheet with silicone baking sheet or parchment paper.
In large bowl, beat together the butter and sweetener, until creamy
Beat in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla.
Beat in the almond flour, gluten-free flour blend, pumpkin pie spice, and baking powder until a uniform cookie dough forms.
Use a cookie scoop to scoop balls of dough, about 2 tablespoons per cookie. Release onto the lined baking sheet, 2 inches apart.
Use bottom of a glass to flatten cookies to about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake approximately 15, until set and turning lightly golden brown at edges.
Meanwhile, make the glaze/frosting, if using. In a small bowl, whisk together the glaze ingredients, until smooth. If too thin, add additional sweetener, if too thick, add a few drops more of cream – however, will melt some on warm cookies, so you don’t want it to be too thin at beginning.
When the cookies are done, let cook for 5 or so minutes until just slightly warm. Spread a teaspoon of glaze on top of each cookie and let set to completely cool for another 10 minutes.
