Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and baking powder. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until a sticky dough forms. If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips at this stage.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten the tops slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the cookies are slightly golden brown. Be careful not to overbake.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your healthy pumpkin pie cookies as a snack or dessert! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
