On low, cream in the blotted pumpkin puree, egg yolk and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. With the mixer on low, add the dry ingredients into the wet a little at a time. Cover the cookie dough and transfer to the fridge to chill for 30 minutes - 2 hours.

Bake the oat pumpkin cookies at 350 F (177 C) for 10 - 12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are set and are a light golden brown. The center of the cookies will be slightly puffed up.
