Cowboy Cookie Exchange with Linda Broday

Wow, and here we are at New Year’s Eve! How did that happen? This month has zoomed. Cookies have always been favorites of mine. They’re just so yummy either by themselves or with something hot. Here’s one I hope you enjoy and very simple. No eggs, flour, or sugar. It’s really healthy and good for diabetics of which I am one unfortunately.

PUMPKIN OATMEAL COOKIES

2 1/2 cups Rolled Oats

2 cups Pumpkin Puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

1/4 cup Maple Syrup (can use Agave nectar)

Optional – Chocolate chips (or any kind of chips)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a large bowl mix together the oats, pumpkin and syrup. If using chocolate chips, add them also and fold in really well.

Roll into balls and press down on a cookie sheet. You can put them pretty close together since they don’t spread.

Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and cool.

There are any number of substitutions. You can add vanilla, nuts, cranberries, and pumpkin pie spice to make them even tastier.

I eat these for breakfast and also as a snack. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Happy New Year!

Here in the Texas Panhandle, we do love our cowboys. There's just something about a man in a Stetson and jeans that makes my heart beat faster. I'm not much of a cook but I love to do genealogy and I'm a bit of a rock hound. I'm also a NY Times & USA Today bestselling author of historical western romance. You can contact me through my website and I'd love to connect with you on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and more. HAPPY READING!
