Description
These no bake pumpkin protein are super easy to make in under 10 minutes. Made with 6 simple ingredients like pumpkin puree, oats, with protein powder and vanilla and naturally sweetened with maple syrup. Vegan and gluten free!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats (gluten free if desired)
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup raw honey (sub maple syrup for vegan)
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
- Using a small cookie scoop, scoop out approximately 24 small balls. Use your hands to roll and place on a plate. Freeze for 10 minutes.
Notes
Store protein balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage. For vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey. The texture should be firm but pliable – if too dry, add a bit more pumpkin puree; if too wet, add more oats or protein powder.
