Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup pumpkin purée
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

For the Crumble Topping:

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the pumpkin purée, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in the walnuts if using.
  • Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • In a small bowl, combine the crumble topping ingredients, mixing with a fork until crumbly.
  • Generously sprinkle the crumble mixture over each cookie.
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the cookies are golden and the crumble is set. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use chilled butter to create a fluffier cookie texture.
  • Make sure the pumpkin purée is not too watery; strain it if needed to avoid soggy cookies.
  • If you want a more intense cinnamon flavor, sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top of the crumble before baking.
