Almond Flour Pumpkin Cake Balls
Almond Flour Pumpkin Cake Balls mix pumpkin puree, maple syrup, warming spices, and almond flour into a moist, pliable batter shaped into balls. These no-bake treats offer a soft, tender texture with subtle sweetness and spice, suitable as snacks or small desserts.
Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 3 tbsp pure maple syrup use sugar-free maple syrup for keto
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp allspice or pumpkin spice
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 2 ½ cups almond flour blanched
- ⅔ cup white chocolate chips use dairy-free, or sugar-free accordingly, or dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- With a large mixing bowl and your handy whisk, add into the bowl the pumpkin puree, sticky sweetener of choice, cinnamon, allspice, kosher salt, and whisk until all of the ingredients are well incorporated.
- When ready, add in the almond flour. Now, ditch your whisk and use a spatula to fold and mix. It will take about a minute until all of the ingredients are fully incorporated. The batter will be wet and moist and will always be in that consistency (see notes).
- Grab the mixture with a tablespoon and form each glob into balls with your palms. Using a small cookie scooper will ensure each ball will be the same size every time.
- Enjoy immediately or store in an air-tight container for up to 3 days.
Notes
- The mixture will stay moist and sticky even after refrigeration; this is expected for the texture.
- To create a firmer or coated exterior, try dipping the balls in melted chocolate or rolling them in hemp seeds or oats.
- Use a small cookie scooper for evenly sized balls, ensuring consistent portions.
