Pumpkin Spice Energy Bites

These little bites are perfect for pumpkin season. Loaded with good-for-you ingredients, they will keep you energized all day long. I love munching on these when it’s an early morning, and I have to get out the door quick. They are so easy to make and taste delicious. I also get a sugar craving everyday from about 12-4pm then again from 7-10pm. I’m always snacky. These are my most favorite thing to grab. They seriously could be dessert they are so tasty. You need these in your life.

How to Make Pumpkin Spice Energy Bites

1. In a large bowl, combine the quick oats, pumpkin puree, natural peanut butter, honey, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, ground flax seeds, vanilla protein powder (this is optional) and dark chocolate chips (also optional). I used a large wooden spoon to mix it all together, but don’t be afraid to get your hands in there and mix it all up (washing your hands beforehand of course).
2. Roll dough into 1″ balls and place on a baking sheet. I covered my baking sheet with parchment paper, but this is optional.
3. Place in the freezer for about 1 hour, then store in a resealable bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (or in the freezer for up to a month).

Storage Suggestions

• Refrigerator: Place in an airtight container or ziplock bag. We do not recommend keeping them at room temperature. We prefer them cold and hard. They will last for 7 days in the refrigerator.
• Freezer: Place in an airtight container or ziplock bag and place in the freezer. These energy bites last in the freezer for up to 1 month.
• If you leave the energy bites on the counter, they can lose their shape.
