Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Brown Butter Pumpkin Oatmeal Latte Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a skillet, add 1/2 cup of salted butter and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled brown butter, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1/3 cup of pumpkin butter, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  4. Gradually add in 1 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of old-fashioned oats, 1 teaspoon of espresso powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice, and 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt. Mix gently.
  5. Fold in the remaining 1/3 cup of pumpkin butter for streaks of flavor throughout.
  6. Roll the dough into balls, place them on the baking sheet, and flatten each slightly.
  7. Bake for 8 minutes, rotate the tray, and bake for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  9. Brown 2 tablespoons of butter for the icing, then whisk in 1 cup of powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.
  10. Spread the icing on cooled cookies and let set before serving.
