0 Preheat the oven to 375F (190C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
1 Peel the banana and add it to a large bowl. Using a fork, mash the banana. Add the oats, peanut butter, salt, pumpkin seeds, and walnuts, and using a silicone spatula, stir to combine.
2 Use a cookie scoop to make 6 large, equal balls of cookie dough.
3 Place the cookie dough balls on the baking sheet, leaving a few inches between each ball. Using the bottom of a sturdy drinking cup or measuring cup, gently press down on each ball, making sure the cookie is flat, but round.
4 Place mini chocolate chips on top of each cookie, if using, and gently press them into the batter. I like to shape the cookie with my fingers making sure they are smooth all around.
5 Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool. Enjoy!
