Healthier Pumpkin Pie Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

I just made these and they are very tasty and yummy.  I found them at Amy's Healthy Baking website (www.amyshealthybaking.com)

Healthier Pumpkin Pie Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Yields 15 cookies

1 cup instant oats (not regular oatmeal but the quick cooking kind)
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tblsp coconut oil or butter, melted and cooled slightly
3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
2 Tblsp dark or semisweet choc chips
1 Tblsp miniature choc chips

Preheat oven to 325
and line a baking sheet with silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
Whisk together the oats, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
In another separate bowl, whisk together the coconut oil (or butter) ,pumpkin puree, and vanilla.  Stir in the maple syrup.  Add in the flour mixture, stirring just until incorporated.  Fold in the choc chips.
Drop the cookie dough into rounded scoops onto the prepared sheet and flatten to the desired  thickness and shape using a spatula (or your hand).  They will finish looking like how you make them look at the beginning) 
Press some choc chips onto the tops if desired.
Bake at 325 for 11 to 14 min.
Cool on pan for 10 min

They are really yummy!
