Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour

- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until the mixture is combined.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each cookie slightly with the back of the spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
