Description

A health twist on a childhood favorite cookie crisp cereal. This pumpkin white chocolate cookie cereal is healthy and totally delicious! It’s gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and super easy to make too! 


Ingredients

Scale

Mini pumpkin white chocolate cookies:

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin 
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin seed butter *
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp arrowroot*
  • 1 1/4 cup oat flour
  • 1/4 cup white chocolate chips 
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pecans

White chocolate drizzle (optional):

For the drizzle use only half of the white chocolate in the recipe and save the other 2 tablespoons for the drizzle. 

  • 2 tablespoons white chocolate chips
  • 2 tsp coconut oil

 


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together pumpkin, maple syrup, pumpkin seed butter, and vanilla extract. Stir well. 
  3. Next, add the oat flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and arrowroot flour to the bowl and mix. 
  4. Toss in the white chocolate chips (half the amount if you are adding the drizzle), and the chopped pecans. 
  5. Using a teaspoon, scoop out the dough. Roll the mini cookies in your hand to form balls and place them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Slightly press the tops of the cookies down. 
  6. Bake them for 10-13 minutes. If you want them really crunchy bake for 15 minutes! 
  7. Allow them to cool completely before serving or drizzling with white chocolate.
  8. To finish with white chocolate, mix 2 tablespoons of white chocolate with 2 tsp of coconut oil together and microwave for 25 seconds. Stir and then using the end of a knife drizzle the white chocolate over the mini cookie cereal. 
  9. Scoop into a bowl, pour some milk over them, and enjoy!  

Notes

* You can use any seed or nut butter instead of pumpkin seed butter
