Top Tips for making these pumpkin oatmeal cookies perfect:

These pumpkin cookies need to be smushed down with the back of a spoon, they won't spread out like plain flour cookies would.
To make the oat flour you will need a blender or food processor. I love using my Kenwood processor. It's very old now, but you can find a similar one on Amazon.
Make these cookies for a healthy option for a quick breakfast, hiking or on the go. They travel well and are full of delicious wholesome ingredients.

Storage:
