These Pumpkin Print Cookies are an awesome healthy snack! Studded with pieces of ginger from sugar free ginger marmalade they speak “fall is in the air”.
Pumpkin print cookies are a wonderful treat that I can pack into my husband’s lunch and not worry that he is hitting the candy machine. With just enough sweet spice to cure that craving for a soft textured cookie that is almost cake like.

Healthy Pumpkin Print Cookies that Fit in your Trim Healthy Lifestyle
Pumpkin and Ginger go hand in hand during fall baking season. these healthy cookies are a wonderful way to “treat yourself to trim”.
I love following the Trim Healthy Mama plan to help control my blood sugar as well as my husband’s.
For the last few years this lifestyle has opened up paths to new and exciting recipes such as these cookies. Finding alternatives to wheat based flours and healthier sweetening choices has been a life saver for my sweet loving husband. He won’t give up his cookies, pies or chocolate.
But following this plan has allowed us to enjoy all of those things and more not only at home, but when we are on the run, working or just visiting with family and friends. I constantly get asked to bring treats like this Brownie Caramel Cake, my The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies, and these wonderful Sugar Free Chocolate Snack Cakes to family gatherings as well as work outings.
How I Studded these Pumpkin Prints Cookies with Ginger
I made this Simply Scrumptious Ginger Marmalade and these cookies came to mind for me. they sure didn’t last long as my husband loved the soft cake like texture with just the right amount of pumpkin spice balanced with pieces of ginger from the marmalade.

I don’t see in the recipe where the Marmalade is used.
Linda says
When do you use the marmalade? After baked?
Judy says
I used it like you would for thumbprints before I baked
