Boil jug and soak cranberries in hot water for around 10 minutes. (This makes them nice and plump). - Peel and roughly chop the pumpkin. Place in the mixing bowl, grate 3 seconds/Speed 5.
Place in a small bowl and set aside. - Cream butter and rice malt syrup for 10 seconds/Speed 4-5, scrap down the sides of the bowl and repeat again if needed. (See tips for alternative sweeteners - I added an extra tablespoon of granulated stevia).
- Add vanilla essence and egg, beat 5 seconds/Speed 3-4.

"Counter-clockwise operation" 5 seconds/Speed 2. - Place in self raising flour, rolled oats and mixed spice for a final mix on reverse 5-10 seconds/Speed 3. Scrap sides and repeat if necessary. (Do not overmix batter).

Cookies
Tip
Along with the rice malt syrup, the recipe relies on the cranberries as a burst of sweetness.
These cookies are low in fructose (sugar) and can be adjusted easily to your personal taste. Simply combine or replace the “1/3 cup of rice malt syrup” with;
**Alternative sweeteners**
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup granulated sweetener.
- add in extra cranberries
- 100g rice malt syrup + 1/3 cup dark semi sweet chocolate chips.
- 4 stevia/sugarine tablets, dissolved in 1/2 tsp of boiled water
(The dark chocolate chips were the most popular combination).
*Keep in mind these cookies will become soft & taste sweeter when completely cooled.*
I have not tested the recipe with golden, agave, maple syrup or honey.
