Main Ingredients
- ½ cup creamy almond butter
- ¼ cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup honey
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup blanched almond flour
- 2 scoops Simple Pumpkin Seed Vanilla Protein Powder
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ cup white or dark chocolate chips
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin puree, creamy almond butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until all the wet ingredients are well combined and smooth.
- Add Dry Ingredients: To the wet mixture, add the blanched almond flour, pumpkin seed vanilla protein powder, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir the mixture until a dough-like consistency forms, making sure all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the white or dark chocolate chips to distribute them evenly throughout the dough without breaking them up too much.
- Shape the Dough: Using a small ice cream scoop, portion out the dough and roll each scoop into a small ball with your hands, creating uniform bite-sized roll ups.
- Add Extra Spice: Sprinkle additional pumpkin pie spice over the formed balls for extra flavor and aroma.
- Chill and Store: Place the roll ups in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Keep them chilled and enjoy as a high-protein snack anytime.
