An easy fall-flavoured snack with 16 grams of protein. These no-bake pumpkin balls are the perfect way to curb a craving.

Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- ½ cup collagen powder
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- ½ cup almond butter
- ⅓ cup honey
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl combine the rolled oats, collagen powder, and spices.
- Add in all the liquid ingredients and mix well.
- Use a 1-1.5 inch trigger ice cream scoop to portion the batter into balls. Press the mixture into the scoop with a silicone spatula so that there’s no air pockets.
- Place each protein ball onto a parchment paper-lined baking tray.
- If you’re using these at a party, use a toothpick to make vertical indentations around the sides of the balls to mimic a pumpkin.
- Top each energy ball with a chocolate chip, pressing down lightly to mimic a stem.
- Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up before serving.

Notes
- If you grind the oats or pulse them in a food processor before you need them it makes the balls have a smoother texture (which is what you need if you're decorating them).
- Mix the batter for longer than you think. This helps everything combine well and actually hold together.
- You can either add the chocolate chips into the balls or simply top each no-bake ball with one on top (which helps give it a pumpkin look). I personally just top them.Make sure to use gluten-free oats if needed for celiac (learn all about beginner tips to a gluten-free diet).
- Sometimes you need to adjust the texture a bit with energy balls. If the mixture seems wet, add in a bit more oats. If it seems too dry, I’d add a bit more almond butter.
- The recipe makes 20-ish balls and each serving is two balls.
