Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, peanut butter, egg, and water. Mix until well blended.
- Gradually add the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, and cinnamon (if using) to the mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
- Lightly flour your workspace and roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness.
- Use cookie cutters to cut out fun shapes from the rolled dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until they are firm and lightly golden.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
