Oatmeal Orange Pumpkin Cookies

This is a little different than your typical pumpkin chocolate cookie (which we sure love around here!).  This is not quite as sweet, but is very delicious and is a fun and unique twist with the orange zest.  

I would recommend doubling this recipe if you have many mouths to feed!

• 
  
  In a large mixing bowl stir together:
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup light olive oil
• 1 cup LIBBY'S® 100% Pure Pumpkin
• 2 large egg whites OR 1 large egg
• 1 1/2 teaspoon orange peel zest (this makes it!)
• 2 cups Quaker® Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
• 1 cup wheat flour
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  1/4 tsp cloves (optional)
  1/3 tsp ginger (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts or pecans
  
  
• -Bake 350 for 13-20 minutes (depends on size of cookie). You don't want these doughy :)
  -Note: Gluten Free flour works well or you can also blend up oats for your cup of flour substitution.
