Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a food processor, combine pumpkin puree, peanut butter, maple syrup, toasted pecans, pumpkin pie spice, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, sea salt, and old-fashioned rolled oats. Pulse until the mixture forms a thick, cohesive paste.
  2. Using a medium cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll into bite-sized balls, aiming for about 15 bites total.
  3. Place the rolled bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes.

  7. Transfer the energy bites to an airtight container for storage, keeping in the freezer for up to 3 months.
