Gluten-Free Pumpkin-Oatmeal Cookies
Gluten-free pumpkin-oatmeal cookies could be described as Soft, fluffy, pumpkin-y deliciousness.

 Many gluten-free cookie recipes end up being hard and brittle, like a sweet cracker, or crumbly. But not these. I was looking for a good, healthy cookie recipe that I could freeze for Garrett to enjoy as a snack. His superpower, as it happens, is making messes, so despite my opinion that these cookies are remarkably un-crumbly, he managed to crumble them all over the living room carpet. So maybe sweet crackers are for him. No matter, while they may not be a candidate for long-term keeping in the snack jar, they’re a great treat.
