Pumpkin Spice Protein Bites
I made these perfect little pumpkin spice protein bites with my daughter a few weeks ago and they were gone so fast! They taste amazing and have the perfect amount of chew. I love having them on hand for a quick snack or little treat after dinner. They come together so easily in the food processor, so it is easy to make a batch for meal prep.
I started with 1/2 a cup of Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Oats in the food processor and blended them until it turns to oat flour. Then I add in the remaining ingredients (except the chocolate chips) into the processor and pulse until it comes together. Then you add in the chocolate chips and pulse a few times to combine. If it is a little dry, you can add 1 Tbls of pumpkin at a time. If it is too wet, you can add 1 Tbls of oats at a time until the right consistency is reached.
I use a small ice cream scoop to scoop the mixture right out of the processor and onto a tray or plate. Then I use my hands to roll them into balls. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for a perfect grab and go snack!

Easy and delicious! I made these using pumpkin spice protein powder instead of vanilla, maple syrup instead of honey, and I used not gluten free products! Already recommended to 3 of my friends and I’m sure more in the next week!
