Pumpkin Energy Bites

Because I'm that girl you know I'm not going to go the season without putting up a pumpkin recipe.  So here is a good one.  It is inspired by one I saw on Pinterest but I had to totally revamp of course to make it VEGan and GF.

Packed with yummy nutritious ingredients, this one is a good one.  Buuuuuuut my favorite part is that it serves as my dessert fix while I try to chart through this whole get fit thing....  My girls love it, and it really does make you feel full and gives a little energy boost (or mini sugar rush via the choc chips)....  Whatever the case you will be a happy camper.  

•Pumpkin Energy Bites•

1 C quick cook GF oats

1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 C peanut butter

2 tbs brown rice syrup (or maple syrup)

2 tbs chia seeds

2 tbs grated coconut

1/4 C almond slices (I use those insanely good Tj's honey roasted ones ooooooeeeeeee!😜

1/4 C pumpkin purée 

1 tbs honey (sub agave for a la vegan)

1 tsp vanilla

1 tbs chocolate chips

Mix all ingredients in a medium bowl,

Scoop out dough and roll into 1-2 inch balls.  I like to line what I'm storing them in with parchment and do a piece of parchment between each layer.  Store in fridge....

Makes 15 balls.
