Ingredients
- 1 cup pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 1/4 cup water as needed
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, applesauce, egg, and honey. Mix well until smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, and cinnamon.
- Combine and Knead: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until a dough begins to form. If the dough is too dry, add water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches a kneadable consistency.
- Roll and Cut: On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
