Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it turns golden brown and releases a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the browned butter, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined.
Drop rounded balls of dough onto prepared baking sheets about two inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Allow to cool on baking sheets before transferring to wire racks.
