Description
Capture the cozy magic of classic pumpkin pie in perfectly portioned, guilt-free energy balls.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons paleo flour
- 1 tablespoon vanilla protein powder
- 1 cup cashew butter
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree, 1 cup cashew butter, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add the 2 tablespoons paleo flour and 1 tablespoon vanilla protein powder to the wet mixture. Use a rubber spatula to mix until a thick, cohesive dough forms. Ensure all dry ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This chilling process helps the mixture firm up, making it easier to roll and allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Once chilled, use a small cookie scoop (about 1-tablespoon capacity) or a regular tablespoon to portion out the mixture. Roll each portion between your palms to form smooth, compact balls, approximately 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.
- Place the rolled energy balls on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet. For best results, chill for another 15 minutes before serving. Store the No-Bake Healthy Pumpkin Pie Energy Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 weeks, or freeze for up to 2-3 months.
Notes
- These energy balls are perfect for a quick snack.
