Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until smooth. Reduce mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture and mix until smooth. Add the oats, pumpkin seeds, cranberries, and quinoa and mix on low speed until smooth.

  3. Scoop out 3 tablespoons of dough balls and place them 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Spray the bottom of a glass with cooking spray and gently flatten the cookies to a thickness of 1 cm (approximately 2.5 inches in diameter).
  4. Bake until the cookies are dry on top and crisp around the edges, 14-16 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
