Paleo Pumpkin Spice Cookies
When the weather cools down, everything turns into a pumpkin recipe! We like to keep them healthy over here, and who doesn’t love a healthy cookie?!
These are so easy to whip up, they freeze well, and there is no shame loading these into little lunchboxes! My kids love these cookies as a healthy treat! Paleo Pumpkin Spice Cookies have become a cool-weather favorite recipe in our house!
The best part is that they are filled with vitamins, fiber, healthy fats, and flavor. They are NOT filled with gluten, dairy, or sugar. A great treat for anyone who is trying to avoid, or who cannot eat grains or dairy!
