I’m sure you’re wondering if these truly taste like pumpkin pie. Yes, absolutely. But you can enjoy them without any guilt. They’re pretty awesome, actually.
Serves 12
INGREDIENTS
1 cup of raw cashews
1 cup oats
1/4 cup medjool dates
1/4 pumpkin, puree (you can used canned)
2 Tbsp. extra virgin coconut oil
2 Tbsp. pumpkin spice
1 1/2 Tbsp. maple syrup
pinch of sea salt
Hand full of coconut, granola, pumpkin seeds for rolling (optional)
DIRECTIONS
- Using a food processor, process the cashews and oats to a fine meal. Add the pumpkin spice and salt and pulse to combine.
- Finally, add the dates, pumpkin pure, coconut oil and maple syrup and pulse until well incorporated. The mixture should stick together when pressed between two fingers.
- Roll the mixture into equally sized balls (I used a tablespoon measure) and roll with topping of your choice
