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 of cookies, but you can split this recipe in half if you do not want to make as much.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
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.
