Dried fruit processing
Pumpkin cookies will turn out to be much sweeter and tastier if you add some dried fruit to it. We decided to use black or white pitted raisins. It needs to be cleaned of garbage, pour boiling water and wait until it swells. Then the dried fruit must be put in a colander and washed thoroughly, strongly shaking hands. After this, raisins are poured into the bulk and mixed thoroughly.
Product formation and heat treatment
So that pumpkin cookies do not burn in the oven, it is advisable to bake it on cooking paper. To do this, put it on a baking sheet, and then place the prepared dough on paper. It is advisable to do this with a large spoon. For taste, such small items can be slightly sprinkled with ground cinnamon. After the entire baking sheet is filled with semi-finished products, it must be put in the oven and baked at a temperature of 185 degrees for about 22 minutes (you can slightly more).
When the pumpkin cookies are completely ready, they should be carefully separated from the cooking paper and laid out on a large flat plate with a slide.
