Description

Enjoy these Pumpkin Oatmeal Cream Pies, a classic fall dessert featuring soft oatmeal cookies filled with creamy pumpkin goodness. Perfect for autumn gatherings, they evoke cozy memories and seasonal flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine old-fashioned oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until combined.
  3. In another large bowl, beat together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Gradually incorporate your dry ingredients into the wet mixture until fully combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Drop tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets about two inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden around the edges but still soft in the center.
  8. While the cookies cool slightly, beat together cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth for the filling.
  9. Once cooled completely, spread cream cheese filling onto half of the oatmeal cookies and top them with another cookie half to create sandwiches.

Notes

  • Use old-fashioned oats for a chewier texture.
  • Ensure you use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
  • Do not overmix the cookie dough.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
  • Can be adapted to be gluten-free using certified gluten-free oats and flour.
  • Consider adding chocolate chips or nuts to the dough for variations.
