Servings: 20
Ingredients

- ⅓ cup canned pumpkin
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup honey
- ½ cup vanilla protein powder

- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Add the almond butter, pumpkin, cinnamon, honey, vanilla protein powder, rolled oats, salt, and pumpkin pie spice to a bowl and stir well to combine. I find a rubber spatula to be easiest to use for stirring this.
- Stir in the mini chocolate chips

- Chill the pumpkin protein balls in the fridge until firm to the touch, then store in a ziploc bag in the fridge or freezer

Notes
If you are using almond butter with salt, you can omit the salt from the dough. Once it is stirred together you can taste it and add any salt if necessary
