  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Add a pinch for balance.

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and fold gently until just combined. Add the chocolate chips.
  5. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan; smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow the treats to cool in the pan for around 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

These treats are delicious on their own or paired with apple cider. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
