Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted raw shelled pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 2 tsp pumpkin-pie spice
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin purée
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup coarse sugar

  1. Preheat oven to 300F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir flour with sugar, pumpkin seeds, pumpkin spice, baking powder and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs with pumpkin purée, butter and vanilla extract. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and stir to combine.
  3. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface. Shape into 2 long, flat logs, about 2 in. wide and 1/2 in. thick. (Dough will rise as it bakes.) Sprinkle coarse sugar on top of logs, pressing gently so it adheres. Bake for 30 min, until centres are firm to the touch.
  4. Remove from oven and let cool 5 min. Reduce oven temperature to 275F. Using a serrated knife, cut logs into 1/2-in. pieces. Place cut-side down on the baking sheet and bake an additional 35 min. Cool completely on a rack.

  1. I just made this recipe, in fact it is in the now for it's second baking. Seems fine, had a taste, tastes good. Here is the thing, I followed this recipe exactly, except I substituted apple puree for pumpkin, however I had to add at least another cup of flour to get it to any kind of consistency that was useable. It came out more like a batter than a dough, so just a heads up!

  2. The consistancy depends on how hot or cold it is in the specific room.. you may need more or exectly the amount of flour needed.
