Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it turns golden brown and fragrant (5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the brown butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar; beat until smooth. Add the pumpkin puree and mix well.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually stir this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are set but centers remain soft. Allow to cool before serving.
