ALL THE PUMPKIN RECIPES.
These vegan pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are my latest creation and oh my goodness.
I don’t know if I can properly find the words to describe just how incredible these are.
The dough alone was so good I was eating it by the spoonful before I got around to baking the cookies.
How to make vegan pumpkin chocolate chip cookies
It is so easy to make vegan cookies, and they taste incredible.
These vegan pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are inspired by my original vegan chocolate chip cookie recipe that I fell in love with.
Insanely buttery chewy soft and perfectly pumpkin-y.
Almost identical to my original vegan chocolate chip cookies, but with a pumpkin spice flair!
Add in melty chocolate chips and flaked sea salt and it’s basically the most delicious thing you can put in your mouth!
Are you ready to start baking?
First, add your flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice to a bowl.
Whisk the dry ingredients to combine.
In a separate bowl, cream together the sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegan butter, and coconut oil.
You will melt your vegan butter and coconut oil first (measured while solid) to avoid any lumps in the batter.
Add your dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and beat to combine.
Fold in a bag of your favorite semisweet vegan chocolate chips.
Now please promise me you will take a bite of the batter.
I have said this before, but I never ate raw cookie dough with eggs growing up for fear of salmonella.
Well no worries with vegan cookie dough!
It tastes so incredible that I was mind blown.
I had a hard time stopping eating the batter when I took these pictures!
I want to experiment freezing this cookie dough to have with ice cream.
I’m even thinking of making chocolate dipped pumpkin cookie dough truffles.
You could say I am obsessed!
Trust me on this one and just grab a spoon.
Once you finish eating cookie dough from the bowl, it’s time to bake that delicious batter into the most amazing melt in your mouth cookies.
Drop by spoonfuls or roll them into balls if you are feeling fancy.
I’m team non perfect cookies.
They taste delicious whether they are perfectly round or not!
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 – 13 minutes and remove once browned.
Top the hot cookies immediately with sea salt flakes.
If you have never tried sea salt flakes on a dessert, you will be shocked at how much it enhances the flavor!
There is a reason why salt is necessary in dessert, and that extra hit of chunky sea salt is a flavor explosion for your tastebuds.
Some of my favorite sea salt flaked desserts:
- Vegan Chocolate Sea Salt Pretzel Bark
- Almond Butter Cups
- Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Truffles
- Dark Chocolate Almond Bark
I love these cookies because they pack such a huge flavor in every single bite.
The perfect pumpkin treat that isn’t difficult to make and so delicious that everyone will love it.
I have found that there are pumpkin haters and lovers and few in between.
I’m pretty sure even those who don’t like pumpkin would like these!
If you can’t tell, I am dying for you to make these!
Just be warned that you may find yourself making them again the next week because you just can’t get enough!

These were great! I substituted coconut sugar for the 1/2 cane sugar. Also I prefer a little more pumpkin, and maybe a little less on the chocolate chips!

Hi! 🙂
I was wondering if I could make a big batch of this recipe and freeze it? I have a big event coming up and I want to do some things in advance. Do you think it will be okay if I freeze them raw and cook them once I take it out of the freezer ?
Or for how long do they keep once baked?
Let me know! 🙂
Joy Shull says
I would say these are best fresh, but you could probably freeze the raw cookie dough in chunks, then just take it out and bake it!
Suzanne says
This looks so good! I’ve never tried pumpkin and chocolate together! I’m excited to try it together!
Evelyn Czuszak says
Made these tonight. Only change to recipe was using dark chocolate vegan chips. The cookies taste good.. had a hard time tasting any pumpkin over the chocolate chips. Slight coconut smell as they baked but didn’t taste that flavor at all. I will go easy on the sprinkle of salt on top next time.. possibly add more pumpkin and pumpkin spice & cut back on the amount of chocolate chips to even out the pumpkin to chocolate ratio. Made 40 large cookies.

Everyone loved them!
