Pumpkin Spice Cookies in 25 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Spread the pumpkin puree on a layer of paper towels and press firmly with another towel to remove excess water.
2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Beat the softened butter and 100g of coconut sugar until the mixture is smooth and pale.
4. Add the blotted pumpkin, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix on medium speed until the batter is velvety and fully combined.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat pastry flour, baking soda, 10g of pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
6. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet batter, mixing only until no streaks of flour remain.
7. In a small bowl, combine 25g coconut sugar, cinnamon, and 2g pumpkin pie spice for the coating.
8. Scoop 1.5 tablespoons of dough, roll into a ball, and roll through the spiced coating until evenly covered.
9. Space cookies 2 inches apart on the baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes until edges are set but centers look slightly underbaked.
