Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups Flour
- ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Spice
- ½ cup Butter Room Temperature
- ¾ cup Sugar
- ½ cup Sourdough Starter Inactive
- 1 Egg Room Temperature
- ½ cup Canned Pumpkin
For the Icing
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 tablespoon Milk
- 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Spice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and pumpkin spice. Set that aside.
- In a large bowl, add the butter and sugar. With a hand mixer, for one minute, until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the egg, pumpkin, and sourdough starter. Mix again.
- Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix until fully combined.
- With an ice cream scoop, scoop the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cookies are baked through.
For the Icing
- While the cookies bake, mix together one cup of powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk, and 1 teaspoon of pumpkin spice. Mix with a whisk until there are no more lumps.
- Take the baking sheet out of the oven and allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack. After the cookies have cooled, drizzle the icing over the cookies. Enjoy immediately!
Notes
- To thicken the icing, add more milk. If the icing is too thin, add more powdered sugar. The consistency should be drippy and easily drizzled.
- An ice cream scoop ensures that all the cookies are the same size and cook evenly.
- Parchment paper ensures that the cookies do not stick to the baking sheet.
