Pumpkin Spice Energy Balls
These pumpkin spice energy balls taste like pumpkin pie in snack form! Made with oats, pumpkin puree, and warm spices, they're an easy no-bake snack ready in 15 minutes.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups oats, rolled or quick oats
- ⅓ cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup walnuts, or pecans
- 3 tablespoons almond butter
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
- 2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup vegan white chocolate chips, melted (optional)
Instructions
- Add the oats, pumpkin puree, walnuts, almond butter, maple syrup, flaxseed, hemp seeds, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and salt to a food processor.
- Blend until the mixture starts to come together. It should stick together when pressed between your fingers. If it’s too crumbly, add 1 tablespoon of water and blend again.
- Scoop out about 1–2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll into balls. I use a cookie scoop for this step to make sure they are all evenly sized!
- If desired, drizzle with melted vegan white chocolate chips and sprinkle with pumpkin pie spice. Enjoy!

Notes
- Make sure you're using pure pumpkin puree: Don't use the can labeled "pumpkin pie filling" because it has added sugar and spices.
- Adjust the texture: If the mixture is too crumbly to roll, add 1 tablespoon of water and blend again. It should stick together when pressed between your fingers.
- Make them nut-free: Use sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter. Instead of nuts, use pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, or more oats.
- Use a cookie scoop for even-sized balls (and less of a mess).
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
