• Cooking Time: 15 minutes
• Preparation Time: 30 minutes
• 15 oz pumpkin, mashed smooth
• 1 Cup roughly chopped dried Cranberries
• 1/4 Cup Rolled Oats
• 1/2 Cup White sugar (for a Fat Free/ Vegan Version use 1/2 cup Agave Nectar instead of white & brown sugar)
• 1/2 Cup Brown sugar
• 1/2 Cup melted Smart Start, Earth Balance or any other "fake buttery spread"
• 1 Egg (for Fat Free/Vegan version 2/3 Cup of Okara or 8oz of Firm Tofu blended in a food processor)
• 2 Cups all-purpose flour (or 1 cup whole wheat white flour & 1 cup unbleached flour)
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 3/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ginger

• 1 tbl Vanilla extract
• 1/2 Cup Flax Meal (optional)
• Almond Icing* optional

1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. In a large bowl, combine wet ingredients.
3. In a separate bowl, stir together oats, flour, flax, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves and salt.
4. Slowly add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and mix well. Add cranberries & pecans.
5. Drop by spoonful onto parchment lined or silicone mat.
6. Bake at 350F for 15 minutes.
7. Cool on a cooling rack.

There are several ways to make this that will satisfy EVERYONE! I also like to use 2 tsps of pumpkin pie spice instead of using ginger, nutmeg, cloves & cinnamon separately
