Pumpkin Walnut Cookies

The combination of pumpkin, walnuts and chocolate is one of my favorites… and this time I edited a chocolate chip cookie recipe to make it a bit healthier for my family. These cookies have lower sugar and whole wheat flour. 

We love using the mini-chips in cookies… so so fun!
These cookies ended up a but puffier than I’d like, but they tasted amazing. My kids ate them right up fresh and over the next few days with the leftovers… My son max loved when I sent them for school snack…
We hope you will try this Whole Wheat Pumpkin Walnut Cookies recipe… I bet you love them! Grab the recipe below!
