- 1 tbsp Ground flaxseed (plus 1 tbsp water to make a flax egg)
- ¼ cup vegan butter

- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp molasses

- 1 ½ cup rolled oats
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 10 tbsp vegan vanilla frosting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

- Next, add the pumpkin puree, flax egg, vanilla extract, and molasses and mix again until cohesive.
- Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until a uniform dough is formed.
- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Notes
* A note about granulated sugar: Not all granulated sugar is vegan, make sure to choose a USDA Organic variety to ensure it is not processed with bone char, an animal ingredient.
- Not Vegan? Swap the vegan butter for real butter and the flax egg for 1 egg.
- Gluten-free? Stick with gluten-free oats and swap to a 1:1 gluten-free flour replacement.
