Pumpkin Maple Cookies

Pumpkin Maple Cookies-chewy, soft pumpkin oatmeal cookies with a sweet maple glaze. These cookies are a real fall treat!

Oooooh, Monday. I did not want to see you this morning. I spent most of my weekend at Deer Valley for the Better Blog Retreat (I will share a recap soon). I had an amazing time, but I didn’t get anything on my to do list done and I didn’t get to spend enough time with my boys. SO instead of having the Monday blues, I am going to extend my weekend. I am going to stay in my pj’s, read stories with my boys, turn on some tunes, and bake Pumpkin Maple Cookies. Take that Monday!

Maple donuts are Josh’s all-time favorite donuts and he is passed his love on to our boys. Caleb and Maxwell both love maple donuts. Maxwell has only had a few tastes, but he savored every little bite!

I am not a huge donut fan, I save my calories for cookies. I do like the flavor of maple though, so I made a Pumpkin Maple Cookie, the best of both worlds. And since it is fall I HAD to use pumpkin because pumpkin is everything right now…and the pumpkin maple combo is legit.

The pumpkin oatmeal cookies are soft, chewy, and sweetened with pure maple syrup. My boys favorite part of a maple donut is the glaze, so I made a sweet maple glaze for my cookies too! The drizzle took the cookies from good to GREAT!

Boycott Monday with me and make Pumpkin Maple Cookies. You will be glad you did!
