Servings: 16 balls
Calories: 104

Ingredients
 
 

Dough
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin drained
  • 5 tbsp honey
  • 2 scoop 1/2 cup protein powder
  • 1 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ginger
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/3 cup milk I used almond!
Coating
  • 1 cup white chocolate
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Method
 

Step 1: Prep pumpkin
  1. Place the canned pumpkin in a strainer or cheesecloth and squeeze out any excess liquid. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the drained pumpkin, honey, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 2: Mix dry ingredients
  1. Blend old-fashioned oats into a fine powder. Add the powdered oats, protein powder, cinnamon, ginger, and pumpkin pie spice to the pumpkin mixture. Stir until it forms a thick, slightly dry dough.

Step 3: Adjust consistency
  1. Slowly add milk, a little at a time, until the dough becomes soft and easy to work with.
Step 4: Scoop and shape
  1. Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scooper, portion out the dough and roll each ball in your hands until smooth.
Step 5: Chill
  1. Place the pumpkin balls in the freezer for 30–45 minutes to firm up.
Step 6: Coat in chocolate
  1. Melt white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully smooth. Mix in cinnamon until evenly combined. Dip each pumpkin ball in the cinnamon chocolate and place back in the fridge to set for 15 minutes.
Step 7: Serve or store
  1. Enjoy fresh, or store in a chilled environment for up to 14 days.
