For the Cookies
- 1/4 cup Pumpkin Puree
- 2 cups Blanched Almond Flour
- 1 tbsp Coconut Flour
- 1 tsp Cream Of Tartar
- 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Xanthan Gum
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/3 cup Butter, Softened
- 1/2 cup Granulated Erythritol Sweetener
- 1 Large Egg Yolk
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
For the Cinnamon Coating
- 3 tbsp Granulated Erythritol Sweetener
- 1 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
Blot the pumpkin puree between layers of paper towels, pressing gently to remove the extra moisture. In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, cream of tartar, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, xanthan gum and salt.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sweetener for 1 to 2 minutes until creamy. Add the blotted pumpkin, egg yolk and vanilla and beat until combined.
Mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until a soft dough forms. Cover and chill for 20 minutes so the dough is easy to roll.
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Stir the coating ingredients together in a small shallow bowl.
Roll the dough into 18 balls and roll each one in the cinnamon coating until well covered. Place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet and flatten to about 1/2 inch thick.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are just set and the tops show small cracks. The centers should still look soft.
Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 15 minutes before moving them. They firm up as they cool and stay soft and chewy in the middle.
