Preheat your oven to 350ºF and line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and set aside.
Cream together the almond butter, maple syrup, brown sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
Add the pumpkin puree, eggs, and almond milk to the wet ingredients and stir until combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until well combined.
Fold in the melted chocolate, being careful not to over-mix.
Transfer the batter to the lined pan and top with additional chocolate chips if desired.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until the center is almost set.
Let the brownies cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Serve warm with ice cream or let them cool completely before slicing.
