Into a bowl, add the flour, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin spice powder. Mix.

Into another bowl, add the pumpkin puree, butter, sugar, light brown sugar, vanilla and use a handheld mixer to beat the mixture. Once mixed, add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, and beat. Fold in the oats.

Place rounded tablespoons of dough about 1-inch apart on the baking sheet. Press down lightly on each cookie using your fingers, or grease a glass cup and press down.
