Yum, I love pumpkin and chocolate chips. I used to make them often for my daycare kids. I saw a recipe today for pumpkin chocolate chip cheesecake I want to try next.

Thanks for posting the gluten-free cookie version!

Can you post the cheesecake recipe?? DS loves to eat and make cheesecake. I'm sure he'd love a new one to try.

RissaRoo,

Thanks for posting. With all these responses I can't wait to try these!

Thanks for this great recipe! I made the cookies yesterday and my husband and I couldn't stay out of them!!! The apartment smelled so good afterward. I haven't frozen any yet but I feel like they would do fine. One thing, and it's not a bad thing, just an interesting thing I wasn't expecting ;) : We ate them straight out of the oven (Mmmmmm...); after a couple of hours went by, these actually were more like muffin tops. So I have been toasting them in my toaster oven before eating to get that tiny bit of crispiness back on the outside. I had always wondered how to make muffin tops, so I'll be playing around more with that!

5 stars! My glutenous husband loved them and so did a gluten-eating friend, who asked for the recipe. It made about 40 for me.

Thank you!! :D

Ok, so every time I go in the grocery store my mouth waters because the bakery has had these yummy looking, big puffy pumpkin chocolate chip cookies on display. So I tried some gluten free ones...OH BOY! They are just like the 'real' thing, I think maybe the pumpkin just adds the right amount of moisture or something but they're one of the best gluten-free cookies I've made. Here's the recipe, I have photos on my blog (click on my profile, I think the address is in there) if you want to see how they turned out. In fact, I have one more cup of pumpkin in the fridge (I baked a pie pumpkin and pureed it) so I'm about to go and make another batch...the kids ate them so fast!

The only thing I'd want to add about this recipe is to make sure your oven rack is in the middle...and watch them, maybe check after 10 minutes to see if they're done inside. The bottoms of one of the pans of cookies got too brown, I think they were too low in the oven but I had to play with the baking time and it may be different for your oven.

Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

I made these last night and I'm not sure if I did something wrong.

They taste great, but they got really huge and puffy, never really crisped or browned to much and I had to bake them for about 30 mins. instead of 12!

We use our baking sheets for to many things so I don't like to put things directly on them. Could it have to do with the fact that I baked them on parchment paper instead of directly on the baking pan?

Jillian,

Mine were more the texture of little cakes than a crisp cookie. The upside of this was that they stayed fresh for several days without drying out.

When you baked them for 30 minutes, did you like how they came out? I was wondering if baking a bit longer would have crisped them up just a little, but with gluten-free baked goods, I'm forever wary of overbaking! :D

I don't think not using the parchment would have made a difference.

Mine were like a little cake too. I had to bake mine for about 15-16 min I think, but that's just a little longer than what the recipe said. Even that, after they cooled they seemed to get just a tad dry, not enough to make them not taste good, but I wondered if I over baked them.

Either way, they were yum!!

Mine also came out cake like. I kept looking at the print out to make sure I had the oven temperature right because if I had only left them in for the 12 mins., they were barely cooked. They are still very moist with having baked them for 30 mins. and like I said they do taste great, but I just wasn't sure if I did something wrong. My only complaint is the outside has this kinda rubbery look to it. As good as they are I would never make them to bring someplace or serve to guests because they just look really weird.

Made them last night, and they are great! I ate a few, stuck some in a bag in the freezer, and brought the rest to work. Everybody loves them. A few know that I am gluten-free, but others just ate them and remarked how good they were.

Thanks for the recipe!

Hi everyone!

I finally got to make these last night and they turned out really good :D

To be honest though I thought they were too strong last night (while still hot) but today I tried one again and they are even better then last night. I gave some to my In Laws (who can eat gluten) and my FIL REALLY liked them. So I am thinking of making these for Christmas when the family gathers with some other stuff that "I" can eat too (I am the only one out of everyone that can't eat gluten). I am always nervous sharing my gluten free foods that I make with people who can eat gluten... don't know why ha. I think its that gluten free things taste normal to me where to others they taste different or strange.

Thanks for posting this recipe it is definately a keeper :)

I just made these and OMG are they good! I used the original recipe but substituted a combo potato and corn starch since I didn't have any tapioca starch. I cooked them for about 20 minutes. They were cake-like, but not dry at all. I also added extra chocolate chips.

Forced my wife to make them for me :P

Love them!!!

      @HAUS, I was at an event in the UK a few years back. I remember ringing the restaurant ahead to inquire about the gluten free options. All I wanted was a few gluten free sandwiches, which they provided and they were delicious. The gluten-free bread they used was Warbutons white bread and I remember mentioning it on this site before. No harm in trying it once. It's fortified with Calcium and Iron. https://www.warburtonsglutenfree.com/warbs_products/white-loaf/ The only other gluten-free bread that I've come across that is fortified is Schar with Iodized salt, nothing else.

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
