Chewy Chai-Spiced Vegan Pumpkin Cookies

These vegan pumpkin cookies remind me of my favorite fall rituals—curling up with a good book, a cozy blanket, and a cup of chai tea. I wanted to translate that warm, comforting feeling into a dessert, and these pumpkin cookies were born. They’ve become a staple in my home as soon as the leaves start to turn.
