Pumpkin cookies have always been a favorite of mine growing up. I'm not sure where this recipe came from though. It's written on that paper they use in elementary school to teach children to write, the ones with two solid lines and a dotted line in the middle. It's so old it's actually an orange/yellow color. It's pretty tattered... so tattered that one time I misread it and accidentally put 4 times the amount of salt in them! After that, I decided I should type it out so I don't make those kinds of mistakes again!
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups sifted flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ginger
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped nuts
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, pumpkin, oil, and vanilla.
- In a medium bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Add to pumpkin mixture and stir until smooth. Blend in raisins and nuts.
- Drop by spoonfuls on to cookie sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes.
