The Best Healthy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Blodies (100 Calories)
Description
This recipe uses a combination of oat flour and coconut flour along with optional vanilla protein powder to form a thick batter enriched by pumpkin purée, egg, vanilla extract, and almond milk. The dry ingredients are spiced with pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon for a warm, autumnal flavor profile. Baking powder and baking soda provide lift for a tender crumb.
Chocolate chips are folded into the batter, and some sprinkled on top create sweet pockets of melty chocolate in each bite. The batter is spread evenly in an 8×8-inch pan lined with parchment, then baked at 350°F until a toothpick inserted yields a mostly clean result with a slight dampness in the center, ensuring moist texture.
The bars balance pumpkin’s natural moisture with the combined flours and protein powder to yield a satisfying, healthy treat around 100 calories per serving. This makes them suitable for a snack or a lighter dessert during fall or holiday seasons.
