I created this recipe for

vegan pumpkin spice snickerdoodles

around Thanksgiving when a friend and I were doing some baking for charity.

Since then I have made this recipe for a few events, and each time these cookies have been very popular.

What makes this recipe special? The pumpkin!

Creamy pumpkin allows the cookie to stay soft and moist even days after baking. Plus, pumpkin spice is a classic holiday flavor, and a welcome addition to this classic recipe.

So go for it! Give these vegan pumpkin snickerdoodles a try, and let me know what you think!
