  • Butter
  • Brown sugar
  • Pumpkin
  • Plain Flour

Add in all the ingredients.


Here is the flour and bicarbonate of soda added to the caramel mixture. Add in the beaten eggs, too.

Use a teaspoon to scoop a portion of doughy batter.




Place spoonfuls of the mixture onto the lined baking tray or on a non-stick sheet. Notice the space between the cookies. Allow about 3/4 inch expansion space.

To cook the sweetened pumpkin puree, stew 1 pound of fruit in water with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Be sure to drain it well or your baked yummies will be soggy. If you'd like to learn how to make pumpkin puree, just click to take you to the tutorial.
