Ingredients
- 1 ½-2 cups old-fashioned or quick oats
- ¼ chia seeds
- ½ cup Sun Butter or no-sugar-added peanut butter
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup Wood’s Pumpkin Maple Syrup (Can substitute for traditional syrup and ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips (I used Lily’s to keep sugar low)
Directions
- To a bowl add all your ingredients except the mini chocolate chips and start to come bind. The mixture should be soft and not too sticky. You should be able to take a scoop and form into a ball with minimal messiness. If it’s too wet you can add a little bit more oats to reach your desired consistency. Remember, the oats will soak up a bit of the moisture.
- Once you think you’ve got a good ball-rolling consistency, mix in chocolate chips.
- Cover a cookie sheet with a piece of wax paper, then take large spoonfuls of your mixture with your hands and roll them into balls, placing them on your parchment paper. Repeat until the dough is gone, then refrigerate or freeze to firm them up.
