How to Make Pumpkin Protein Balls
  1. In a food processor, grind the oats for about 1 minute until they’re almost a fine powder.
  2. Add in the pumpkin puree, chia seeds, peanut butter, maple syrup, salt, and pumpkin spice. Mix everything together until incorporated, creating a sticky and thick dough.
  3. Toss in the vegan chocolate chips and pulse the mixture about 15 times.
