Instructions

Preheat Oven:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Wet Ingredients:
Beat in the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Combine Mixtures:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Stir in oats and raisins.
Shape Cookies:
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake:
Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra flavor, add 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans to the dough.
Swap raisins for dried cranberries for a festive twist.
