Pumpkin Pie Protein Bliss Balls
I always love having protein snacks on hand to enjoy throughout the busy week, and these pumpkin pie protein bliss balls are perfect during the fall season! They are easy to make and almost too cute to eat! They are packed with healthy fats, fiber, and protein which will make these treats a bit more balanced and blood sugar friendly. making these bliss balls into adorable pumpkin shapes is definitely a must!
Equipment
- Baking twine
Ingredients
- 1 cup cashew or almond butter
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
- 4 tbsp coconut flour
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp pumpkin spice
- Chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup Granulated monk fruit
Instructions
- In a bowl, add the coconut flour, vanilla protein powder, and pumpkin spice. Whisk everything together so there are no clumps.
- Add the cashew or almond butter, pumpkin puree, and maple syrup. Mix everything together until well incorporated and a dough like texture forms.
- Place the mixture in the fridge for 15 minutes to harden a little.
- Roll the pumpkin pie protein mixture into about 12-14 balls and then roll them in the monk fruit "sugar" to coat evenly.
- Using a piece of twine, wrap it around the bliss balls in a cris-cross pattern to make them look like pumpkins.
- Top each of them with a chocolate chip. Store them in the fridge and enjoy throughout the week.
