Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • ¼ cup peanut butter or almond butter
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds or flaxseeds
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Add oats, pumpkin puree, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla, pumpkin spice, and cinnamon to a mixing bowl and stir well.
  2. Mix in chia seeds and mini chocolate chips until evenly combined.
  3. If the mixture feels too wet, add a few extra oats and mix again.
  4. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of mixture and roll into small balls using your hands.
  5. Place the energy balls on a tray or plate lined with parchment paper.
  6. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to help them firm up.
  7. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy throughout the week.

Notes

Use pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, for the best flavor and texture.
If the mixture sticks to your hands, lightly wet your hands before rolling.
You can swap peanut butter with almond butter or sunflower seed butter.
Add protein powder if you want extra protein in your snacks.
Energy balls can be frozen for longer storage.
