Ingredients
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups white sugar
- 0.5 cups brown sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
- 2 eggs
- 0.5 cups pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cups finely chopped pecans
Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together the flour, white sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with pumpkin puree and vanilla extract; stir in pecans. Pour in the dry ingredients, and stir to make a stiff dough. Divide the dough in half, and form each half into a log about 10 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the logs onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.

3
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.

Let the logs cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes; remove to a work surface and slice the logs into individual cookies about 1/2-inch thick. Use a sharp knife and a light sawing motion to cut up the cookies. Place the cookies back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Return the cookies to the oven, and bake until lightly browned, about 8 minutes; turn the cookies over and bake until crisp, another 8 minutes. Let cool on wire racks.
