Q: Can I use canned pumpkin pie filling instead of puree?
It’s best to use plain pumpkin puree; pie filling has added sugar and spices, which may alter flavor and texture.
Q: How do I make them extra soft?
Do not overbake — cookies will firm up as they cool. Adding an extra tablespoon of pumpkin puree can also increase moisture.
Q: Can I make smaller or larger cookies?
Yes! Adjust baking time by 2–3 minutes less for smaller cookies, or 3–4 minutes more for larger ones.
