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.

gpierre Newbie

Forced my wife to make them for me :P

Love them!!!

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Help me out here. Lauren Dam gluten-free beer from Spain is listed as gluten free. Yet its made from Barley Malt. I thought barley and any form had gluten. Anybody have any more information about it?

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
