large bowl

Parchment paper
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- ½ cup pumpkin purée not pumpkin pie filling
- ½ cup natural almond butter or peanut butter
- ½ cup vanilla protein powder
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- a pinch salt
- mini chocolate chips optional
- chopped nuts optional
- shredded coconut optional
In a large bowl, combine the oats, protein powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until the dry ingredients are well mixed.
Then, add in the pumpkin purée, almond butter, and maple syrup. Use a sturdy spoon or clean hands to mix everything together until a thick, sticky dough forms.
If the mixture feels too dry, add a splash of almond milk or more pumpkin. Once it’s mixed, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and roll them into smooth balls.
Place on a parchment-lined tray and chill for 15 minutes to firm up, or store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to one week.
