In reply to Cassie. Hi Cassie! I truly appreciate your support! You would need less flour here if you use brown butter, but without having personally done it I can't say for sure exactly how to adjust. It would take some experimentation. If you do try it I would love to know how it goes. :)

In reply to Sam. Hi Sam! I am a faithful follower of yours. I love your recipes! I want to try the pumpkin cookies. I was wondering what I would need to adjust if I wanted to brown the butter for the cookies?

In reply to Kathleen M Hannon. Hi Kathleen! You should be fine to make a double batch of these. :)

In reply to Kara. Thank you Kara for saying 1.7 oz. I like to weigh each cookie as well.

In reply to Tammy. Hi Tammy! I haven't personally tried it, but I think it should. The only reason it wouldn't is if it's made too thin. It will take quite a while for it to set up though. :)

In reply to Caitlyn Marie. Hi Caitlyn! Unfortunately I am not familiar with using egg substitutes, so I don't have a good one here. :( Hopefully someone else who has tried it can chime in with some advice. Happy first birthday to your daughter! What a wonderful time. :)

Hey Sam,
Do you have an egg substitute that would work with your recipes? My daughter developed a severe egg and dairy allergy and her first birthday is coming up and she LOVES pumpkin. I used to bake all your goodies but the recent restrictions have been hard. I currently use unsweetened oat milk or almond milk to replace cows milk.

Awesome, I was looking for a pumpkin cookie recipe I could use sort of as a base for oatmeal pumpkin cookies and I think this may do the trick! Thanks

Easily 5 stars. This is one terrific cookie. Plenty sweet w/o the glaze. I halved the recipe (including the yolk 1 1/2 tsp ) and added some raisins and craisins to half of the batch. It did not disappoint.
Thanks Sam

In reply to Tom E.. Hi Tom! The egg yolk does help bind the cookies, but I would probably try it without using the yolk. I can't guarantee how it will come out, but I think it could work. :)

In reply to Emily @ Sugar Spun Run. If I halve the recipe do I need to halve the egg yolk?
