What ingredients do I need to make these Easy Pumpkin Pie Protein Balls?

  • Rolled oats -gluten free, if desired.
  • Pumpkin puree- canned. Be sure to use 100% pumpkin puree NOT the pumpkin pie filling 
  • Reduced fat peanut butter or almond butter– I like to use Better n’ Peanut Butter, You can find it on Amazon HERE. This peanut butter has only 100 calories and 2.5 grams of fat per serving!
  • Honey- I only use 2 tablespoon for a natural sweetener and binding agent.
  • Vanilla extract– for sweetness and flavor.
  • Pumpkin Pie Protein Powder- I like to use Clean Simple Eats Pumpkin Pie protein powder. You could use your favorite brand. You could also use any vanilla protein powder and add an additional 1/2 tsp of pumpkin spice. Save 10% on your Clean Simple Eats order using discount code: Pounddropper. Order HERE
  • Pumpkin pie spice– for flavor
  • Cinnamon– for flavor
  • Chia seeds- these are optional. The overall point value is the same regardless if you add them or not. We love the added fiber, protein, and nutrients the chia seeds give to these protein balls.
  • No sugar added milk or dark chocolate chips– I like to use ChocZero no sugar milk chocolate. You can find them HERE online. Save 10% on your order with discount code: Pounddropper
