Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Gradually add dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir until just combined.
Add chocolate chips and gently fold them in.
Scoop dough by rounded tablespoons onto the baking sheet.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until cookies are set and lightly golden on the bottom.
Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
