BEST Ever No-Sugar Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe!

By -
We make a lot of sugar-free and no-sugar recipes. Usually I make slight variations on other recipes I have, but when I stumble across a combination that seriously tastes like the best thing I've ever done, I want to write it down! This pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe is one of those "best ever" moments! I made about four dozen, and they were gone within two hours!


I don't particularly love scrolling through long blog posts for recipes, so I'll start right at the top here with the recipe and add notes and instructions afterward! (If you have a moment when you finish, I'd appreciate it if you scrolled to the bottom to give all my ads a chance to load. 😉)

BEST Ever No-Sugar Added Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies:

Ingredients:

** 1 cup melted coconut oil
** 1+1/4 cup powdered Splenda
** 3 teaspoons vanilla
** 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
** 1/2 teaspoon salt
** 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
** 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
** 4 teaspoons cinnamon
** 1+1/2 teaspoon allspice
** 1+1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose white flour
** 1/2 cup quick oats
** 1+1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips



INSTRUCTIONS:
1- Melt the oil and beat all the wet ingredient.
2- Add the spices.
3- Add the flour and oatmeal.
4- Gently mix in the chocolate chips. 
5- Refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
6- Drop by small, rounded tablespoons onto a lightly greased cookie sheet. 
7- Cook for about 9.5 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Let them sit and cool for about 2 minutes before removing them from the pan.

NOTES:
1- You probably noticed that there are no eggs in this recipe. Using eggs in a sugar-free recipe makes the cookies a little too cake-like. ;) 
2- Refrigerating the cookies helps them hold their shape better. I actually did a batch with both no refrigerating and refrigerating. Without refrigerating they spread more and feel a little more cake-like too...though they are still delicious!
3- The dough is a little softer than most cookie dough recipes. They still cook up great!

I hope you love these! As soon as we made them my kids each declared them as the best sugar-free pumpkin chocolate chip cookies we've ever made!




Happy Educating,

Science Experiment: Elephant Toothpaste

By -

Update: "Elephant toothpaste" is a science experiment that I used to do with my high school students.  It is a strong multi-sensory demonstration that goes great with a lot of chemistry concepts. It is also very popular with preschoolers and homeschoolers!  The internet loves it too! It has now been read by more than 3.9 million people! This was the post that started the trend on science activity sites across the internet and "irl!"  Thank you for being here...I hope you enjoy it as well!  💕  This exciting science experiment works great in a discussion on reactions, as a demonstration, or as an actual experiment. We've also done seasonal twists with "elephant toothpaste" like making it in a pumpkin and using it for " reindeer toothpaste !" To use it as a science project, perform it once with your child, then ask your child what might happen if you changed the amounts or left out an ingredient.  Any time you experiment

This sensory lesson includes a kindness activity for kids that is short and sweet,  and makes teaching kindness a beautiful thing! Learning to use kind words with our friends is one friendship lesson that I think we can never cover enough...kids always need reminding (sometimes adults do too)!  You will need these simple supplies for the kindness activity: cotton balls, course sandpaper, cup, Should I Share My Ice-Cream by Mo Willems Directly teaching good friendship skills, like using kind words, serves two purposes: 1- You can refer to the lesson when someone forgets or needs reminding, and 2- These skills are not intuitive for all preschoolers. This is a perfect age to bring empathy and kindness to their attention and help them cultivate these skills! You can use this lesson plan exactly as I did it with our kiddos, or adapt it to fit your group! 1- Read  Should I Share My Ice-Cream  by Mo Willems.   {Image below is an Amazon Affiliate Link:} D

Crazy Cool Giraffe Science Experiment

Do you know what color giraffe skin is? Today we're using a capillary action science experiment to make our own giraffe skins in this fun giraffe science experiment project! (Read on...I'll tell you the color in a moment! AND I have a few more fun giraffe facts at the end! Anyway, go on and make a guess before you see the answer!) Fun Spot  Giraffe  Fact:  There are four different giraffe species:  the Masai Giraffe, the Rothschild Giraffe, the Somali Giraffe, and the Nigerian Giraffe.  Each has its own unique spot pattern.  Even more unique, every single individual giraffe has a different spot design.  Just like fingerprints on people and stripes on a zebra, spots on a giraffe are unique in every individual! Giraffe skin is mostly grey. (Were you right?) It's also really tough and thick.  The coat is a shade of tan with brown spots or patches.  Male giraffes actually get darker as they get older! To make our "giraffe skin" we're going to us
