*The recipe works best with spelt flour, all purpose white flour, oat flour, or all purpose gluten free flour.
1. Preheat the oven to 325° Fahrenheit (165° Celsius).
2. Combine the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking soda, salt, and baking powder in a stand mixer or large mixing bowl. Mix well.
3. Add the melted oil, pumpkin puree, and pure vanilla extract, and stir just until it forms a cookie dough texture.
4. Roll tightly into balls with your hands, and place the balls on a cookie sheet.
5. Stir the remaining sugar, ground cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice in a cereal bowl.
6. Use a spoon to coat each cookie dough ball in cinnamon sugar, then return them to the baking sheet.
7. Place the sheet on the center rack of the preheated oven. Bake 11 minutes.
8. Remove from the oven. If you prefer flatter cookies, you may press each down with a spoon.
9. Let cool, then serve and enjoy.
