Equipment

  • large bowl
  • Whisk
  • Baking Sheets
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter melted, cooled
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 each egg yolk at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree blotted with paper towels to remove most of the moisture

Add-Ins

  • 2 cups butterscotch chips divided

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a large bowl, stir together oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice.
  • In another large bowl, whisk together butter, sugar, brown sugar, egg yolk, vanilla, and pumpkin puree.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined. Do not overmix - it leads to 'tough' cookies.
  • Fold in 1 ½ cups butterscotch chips.
  • Drop by heaping tablespoonful (golf ball-sized) onto parchment paper or silicone mat-lined baking sheets.
  • Flatten slightly - cookies won't spread a whole lot.
  • With the remaining ½ cup butterscotch chips, dot 3-4 chips on the top of each cookie.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes, or until edges are golden, and the centers appear almost 'set'.
  • Remove from heat, and cool on cookies sheets for about 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
