In a separate small bowl, whisk together:
✅ Pumpkin puree
✅ Almond butter
✅ Honey or maple syrup
✅ Vanilla extract
Stir until you get a smooth, creamy mixture.
Step 3: Combine Everything
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir well until all the oats and seeds are fully coated. The mixture should be sticky but firm.
Step 4: Form the Bites
Using a spoon or your hands, scoop out small portions and roll them into balls (about 1-inch in diameter). If the mixture is too sticky, refrigerate for 10 minutes before rolling.
Step 5: Chill & Enjoy!
Place the bites on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before eating. This helps them firm up and hold their shape.
