They are gluten-free but you can use any flour of choice.

For these cookies we lightly dusted them with a little powered sugar. It is optional but helps give the cookies a little more holiday look to them like <i>dusted snow?</i> <b> </b></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookies</b> created by: <b><a href="http://www.pure2raw.com/" target="_blank"><u>Lori and Michelle</u></a></b> makes 20-24 cookies depending on size of scoop prep-time: 5 minutes bake-time: 10-13 minutes <b> </b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Ingredients:</b></span> </div><ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><li><span style="font-size: small;">2 cups gluten free flour blend (or spelt, or any flour of choice)</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1 1/2 teaspoon soda</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1 teaspoon cinnamon</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1/4 teaspoon allspice</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1/2 teaspoon cardamom</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1/2 cup coconut oil (or oil of choice)</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1 cup coconut or sucanat sugar (or sugar of choice)</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">20 drops liquid stevia (or 2 tbsp maple syrup or agave)</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1 cup pumpkin puree</span></li><li><span style="font-size: small;">1 egg</span></li></ul><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><br /><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Directions:</b> Grab a large bowl and place all dry ingredients into the bowl and whisk.
