Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 350 F.  
  • Step 2: Browned Butter
    Add room temperature unsalted butter or salted butter to a heavy small saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently, until the butter melts.    
    Once the butter becomes melted butter, it will begin to foam, then subside.  
    Watch the melted butter closely for a brown color and brown bits on the bottom of the saucepan. The butter should have a nutty aroma.      
    Remove from the heat and put the saucepan on a cool burner. This will prevent the browned butter from getting too dark or burnt.  I do this to our browned butter every time and it has never burned.

  • Step 3: Whisking Dry Ingredients And Pumpkin Pie Spice
    In a large mixing bowl combine flour, oatmeal cookie mix, pumpkin pie spice, and pumpkin pie spice flavor pudding mix.
    Whisk the dry ingredients for perfectly light and airy cookies filled with the taste of fall.

  • Step  5:  Ready, Set, Bake! Cookie Dough  And A Chewy Cookie
    Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop the pumpkin pie spice cookie dough making sure the cookie dough is flat and level with the cookie scoop.    
    Add the cookie dough to the parchment paper covered baking sheet or cookie sheet for baking success and less cleanup.

  • Step  6: Oven Magic: Transforming Cookie Dough Into Pumpkin Oatmeal Delights
    Add each parchment paper covered cookie sheet to the preheated oven.
    Wait for the smell of your pumpkin oatmeal cookies as they bake for 15 minutes.  
    The edges of the cookies should be slightly brown around the edges before removing the cookies from the oven.
    If the pumpkin cookies do not get brown edges, the cookies may be too chewy.
    When the timer goes off, carefully remove the cookie sheet. Let these chewy pumpkin cookies sit on the cookie sheet for two minutes.
    Remove the cookies and let them cool completely on a wire rack.  
  • Step  7:  Seal The Flavor: Airtight Container, Keep Your Cookie Recipes Fresh
    Store these pumpkin oatmeal cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for five days.
    This will help keep your sweet treats fresh and full of pumpkin spice flavor!  
    These pumpkin flavor cookies freeze well.  Freeze these in an airtight container for three months.
    So, if you aren't eating these cookies right away, freezing them is a great option.
