Healthy No-Bake Pumpkin Cookies

Sorry for another pumpkin post, but whoops can't do anything about that it's out of my control.  It's just too yummy to refrain from telling you all about this.  Okay, now let me tell you why these cookies are the best things you have ever tasted in your whole entire life.  

Number one, they are no-bake.  That's right, everybody, no patiently sitting by the oven hoping for your cookies to be done soon so you can eat them all.  You simply have to mix the ingredients together, and then eat it.  You don't even have to form the dough into cookies if you don't want to, just eat it right out of the mixing bowl.  Second, they have a crunch to them, from the raw sugar and oats that I used.  Third, they have pumpkin and pumpkin spice and if you have that then everything is good.

I know, I know, now you need the recipe.  I won't keep it away from you.  Oh, and just so you know, I did not come up with this recipe, it is from the wonderful blog Chocolate Covered Katie!  She's a genius!

Here is her recipe:

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup quick oats (60g)
• 1/2 cup oat flour (or make your own by blending oats in a food processor until they become powder. Measure after blending.) (75g)
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 cup sugar (or coconut sugar or sucanat) (55g)
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional: a pinch pumpkin pie spice as well)
• optional: handful mini chocolate chips
• 1/3 cup canned pumpkin (or sweet potato puree) (80g)
• 2 to 2 1/2 tablespoons milk of choice, as needed
• 1 tablespoon oil (omit if you desire, but I can’t vouch for the results)
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Directions:

• Combine all dry ingredients and stir very well. 
• In a separate bowl, combine all liquid (including pumpkin). Then stir to combine, and form into balls or cookies. Or put in the fridge to firm up a little before forming cookies.
