Pumpkin Protein Energy Bites

Method

1. 01
   Step 1Mix the dough

   Add peanut butter, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, honey, coconut flour, oat flour, and protein powder (if using) to a large bowl and mix until well combined. Depending on the consistency of your peanut butter and the type of flour/protein powder you use, you may need to add a little more flour or protein powder. You want the mixture to reach a dough-like consistency.

   Note

   Maple syrup works instead of honey if you prefer. Almond flour works instead of oat flour.
