Ingredients
1¾ cups Puréed cooked pumpkin
1½ cups Brown sugar
2 Eggs
½ cup Vegetable oil
1½ cups All-purpose flour
1¼ cups Whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon Baking powder
2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Ground ginger
1 cup Raisins
1 cup Chopped walnuts
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and lightly grease or line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the puréed pumpkin, brown sugar, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir until well blended and smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and ground ginger. Gently fold this dry mixture into the pumpkin mixture until just combined.
Fold the raisins and chopped walnuts into the dough until evenly distributed.
Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the cookies are golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Comments
All ingredients are standard stock at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, ALDI, and Kroger—no special stops needed. Cost per serving is roughly eight cents, driven by budget-friendly staples like canned pumpkin and pantry items, making this genuinely cheap. The stated 26 minutes ignores actual prep time; mixing, scooping 48 cookies onto baking sheets, and oven time realistically runs 40 minutes, and that's before cooling. These are plain drop cookies that reheat fine and suit a weeknight batch bake, though the yield is large enough you'll be eating them for days.
