I was looking for a pumpkin recipe that was different from my favorite frosted pumpkin cookie and happened to find this Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies. I loved that it had oatmeal in it and was more chewy than cake-y.
These cookies made a TON and are perfect for starting the Neighborhood Phantom Tradition in your neck of the woods.

Get My Meal Plans NOW!What oatmeal works best for this recipe?
I love me some oats. I am all about the delicious and simple oat recipes I have been seeing, but each one calls for different kinds of oats.
For this particular recipe, I recommend using quick cooking oats. These are found by all the other oats, in the cereal aisle.
You could also use steel cut oats, if you are looking for a healthier option. However, this will change the taste and texture of the cookie.
We definitely prefer using quick cooking oats, but really any kind of oat would work with this recipe.
Could I make this Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe, without using oats?
You could most definitely make this recipe without using oats. However, if you do choose to do this, I recommend adding a little more flour.
I would add about 1/2 cup of flour, check the texture, then slowly add more flour, little by little.
