Key ingredients and substitutions:

• Flours - I like to use a combination of coconut flour and almond flour to make this pumpkin edible cookie dough. They give it a nice hearty texture and flavour. Instead of almond flour you can use cashew flour. Just don't use almond meal - it is not the same as almond flour. 
• Coconut sugar - I use coconut sugar to keep this cookie dough refined sugar free but brown sugar also works if that's what you have in your pantry. 
• Spices - cinnamon, nutmeg and sea salt give this cookie dough the perfect pumpkin spice cookie flavour.  
• Pumpkin puree - to give it that distinctive pumpkin flavour. I used canned pumpkin puree but you could also make your own pumpkin puree if you prefer. Don't confuse this for pumpkin pie filling. They are not the same. 
• Coconut oil - coconut oil helps the cookie dough hold it's form and keep it nice and moist. 
• Chocolate chips - because chocolate makes everything better. I like use dark chocolate chips but you could also use milk chocolate chips or chocolate chunks.

Recipe variations:

• Instead of coconut sugar you can use brown sugar.
• Feel free to add a little pumpkin pie spice to give this cookie dough a different flavour.
• Turn this into pumpkin cookie dough for one by cutting the recipe in half or a quarter!
