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!!!

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

      EXACTLY! I was asked yesterday on my LAST video call with Standford and I stated exactly yes absolutely this is why I need the name! One, get proper care, two, not get worse.Im falling apart, stressed out, in pain and just opened email from Stanford stating I was rude ect.I want that video reviewed by higher ups and see if that women still has a job or not.Im saying this because I've been medically screwed and asking for help because bills don't pay itself. This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
