    These sound great!!
    For those who don't have non-stick cooking sheets (I don't): I line the sheets with parchment paper. Cookies etc. come off of that very easily! - 3/23/11

    I made a half recipe b/c I wasn't sure if my husband would eat these. I used 1/8 C of succanat and 1 Tbs of agave in place of the sugar. I also added 20 grams of chopped 88% dark chocolate. It made about 23 w/about 40 cals each. Very tasty little treat!! Will def make again, thanks!! - 2/10/10

    They were kind of gummy to me. It tasted like there was too much sugar and not enough pumpkin. I think it would be better with an egg or two, but that wouldn't be vegan. They were okay, but it just made me want real pumpkin bread. My family also thought they were just okay. - 12/5/09

    To keep it vegan, I used ground flaxseed (1 T flaxseed : 3 T water) to emulate an egg. They turned out just okay--much more cake-like than cookie-like. They're good, but I don't think the average American junk food eater would like them, because they really do taste like health-food cookies. - 1/2/11

    These are really good. I did add an egg, as I am not vegan and they looked a little dry. They had really good flavor and were very moist. - 11/26/10

    I did add an egg - sorry, I know that's not Vegan! I also used a whole can of pumpkin, because I didn't want to waste the rest. So my calorie counts were slightly different. However, these tasted great!!! - 5/18/10

    Very tasty. I followed the spices exactly but I think next time I'll add more ginger and cinnamon. - 11/26/09

    Awesome! Thanks for sharing! My pans aren't non-stick. The cookies came off ok when ungreased, but much better when I greased them. Didn't have allspice so I used 1 tsp ginger and 1/4 tsp cloves. Whole wheat pastry flour worked great. I'll definitely bring these to holiday parties this year! - 11/22/09

    I thought these cookies were awesome and had plenty of flavor. I love pumpkin. I normally make a pumpkin bread, but that has too many calories. This is a nice replacement. Thanks for sharing them. - 11/8/09

    I thought these had very little flavor, but the consistency was perfect. I might work on making them taste better, adding more vanilla or spices... - 11/6/09
