Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup shortening
½ cup pumpkin puree
2 eggs
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon cream of tartar
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ cup white sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine 1 1/2 cup sugar and shortening in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Beat in pumpkin puree and eggs.
  • Mix all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and cloves together in a bowl. Fold into shortening mixture until a sticky dough forms.
  • Place 1/4 cup sugar in a shallow bowl. Shape spoonfuls of dough into small balls. Roll in sugar and place 2 inches apart on baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
