Ingredients
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
- 1 and 1/2 cups old-fashioned whole rolled oats
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl whisk together pumpkin, egg, and vanilla until well combined. In a separate bowl, combine flour, oats, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, chocolate chips, and dried cranberries.
- Fold together the wet and dry ingredients until just combined and do not overmix. The cookie dough will be very thick.
