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 flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms. If using, fold in the chocolate chips at this stage.
Scoop the dough using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop and place evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet. Gently flatten each cookie with the back of a spoon or your fingers, as they won't spread much during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden and the cookies feel set to the touch.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
