Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In another large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.
Add the egg to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until fully incorporated. Then, mix in the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until no streaks of flour remain.
Fold in the granola, pumpkin seeds, and chocolate chips (if using) with a spatula, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. The centers should look set but still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
