- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (or white whole wheat flour)
- 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin spice (or sub 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ginger, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon allspice)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, pumpkin spice, salt and baking soda; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer beat coconut oil, brown sugar, vanilla, and egg until well combined, smooth and creamy. Keep mixer on low speed and add in pumpkin.
- Next add in all dry ingredients (except oats and chocolate chips); mixing until just combined. Gently fold in oats and chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.

Cookies should be stored in a covered container and will get softer and more cake-like the following day after you bake them.
Notes
To make gluten free: use an all purpose gluten free flour instead of whole wheat flour.
