Pumpkin Pie Snickerdoodles are a fabulous fall twist on a classic cookie the whole family will love! Lots of delicious pumpkin pie flavor in an easy to make cookie! Love pumpkin? Me too! Make sure to try these pumpkin favorites: Pumpkin Bars, Pumpkin Muffins, and Cranberry Pecan Pumpkin Bread – so good!

Pumpkin Pie Snickerdoodles

There’s nothing quite like a Snickerdoodle. I mean, really! What other cookie is both fun to say and fabulous to eat?? Snickerdoodles are a great cookie to have the kiddos help with and make the perfect after-school snack.

I knew about 6 months ago that I wanted to make a Pumpkin Pie Snickerdoodle for the Fall. I used my Totally Addicting Snickerdoodles recipe as a jumping-off point and used a few tricks to keep the Snickerdoodles as chewy and delicious as they should be.

Everything Snickerdoodle

I’m a huge fan of snickerdoodles which is why I have so many recipes for them on my site:

  • Mexican Chocolate Snickerdoodles
  • White Chocolate Snickerdoodles
  • Totally Addicting Snickerdoodles
  • White Chocolate Snickerdoodle Latte

You Forgot the Egg!

You’ll probably look at the recipe below and assume that I forgot one crucial ingredient – eggs! But I didn’t 🙂

The pumpkin replaces the eggs in this recipe entirely. I tried eliminating just one egg from my favorite Snickerdoodle recipe but the texture just wasn’t quite right. Eliminating both eggs and upping the pumpkin content gave me both the flavor and texture I was looking for.

For the Love of Snickerdoodles

It wasn’t until a few years ago that I really fell in love with Snickerdoodles but they quickly became a family favorite. The boys, particularly Reece, LOVE Snickerdoodles and these Pumpkin Pie Snickerdoodles exceeded their high expectations.

The mellow pumpkin flavor is nicely accented with pumpkin pie spice. Instead of rolling the cookies in just sugar and cinnamon, I added some pumpkin pie spice to both the sugar-cinnamon mixture as well as to the cookie itself. I love that punch of spice in these cookies!

Snickerdoodle Ingredients

Snickerdoodle cookies are always a crowd favorite and these pumpkin pie inspired cookies are just perfect for fall. This is what you’ll need to whip up a batch this weekend:

  • butter
  • butter-flavored shortening
  • sugar
  • brown sugar
  • pure pumpkin
  • vanilla
  • flour
  • cream of tartar
  • baking soda
  • baking powder
  • pumpkin pie spice
  • salt
  • cinnamon

On another note – I just used my last can of pumpkin! I can’t believe how quickly I am going through it all! I hope you guys aren’t tired of pumpkin recipes yet because I’ve got some more coming your way soon 🙂

    Not a huge fan of shortening, would using all butter hurt the texture? Also, no “butter flavored” on hand…if I had to use shortening would regular effect outcome? Thanks!

      It does change the texture Pamela which is why I caved and used shortening. You can use regular-shortening and it won’t affect the taste too much and the texture will be perfect. Good luck!

    I just have to say, I’ve tried quite a few of your recipes now and I love how I can always trust the awesomeness that will result! I have had trouble many times with overly cakey pumpkin cookies and found that subbing pumpkin for eggs completely is a great way to go. That being said, I cannot wait to try these little sweet treats–absolutely wonderful collision of two favorite fall items!

    It’s a wonder that you’ve been able to get through ALL of these magnificent pumpkin recipes…and I haven’t even started my series yet. Yikes! I guess it might be the fact that it still feels like summer here–although we had the first spell of cold nights hit tonight, so fingers crossed that I get to run to the store tomorrow for a can 😉 these look really delightful. I’d be glad to dive into the pumpkin season with these!

    They look awesome and I am glad to see a non pudding mix cookie. Nothing wrong with those! But it’s nice to be able to have a recipe to recreate the flavors minus any mixes (when those go out of season!). And that they’re almost vegan no less – amazing! Pinned!

      Absolutely Averie! I love pudding mix cookies too but it’s fun to make it with “real” ingredients sometimes 🙂 Thank you!
