Ohhh September how I love you – you’re the start of fall which brings me all things PUMPKIN! I’m a sucker for pumpkin recipes, so felt it was only appropriate to create my first of many recipes containing pumpkin as the featured ingredient this season!
These little no-bake balls of goodness literally taste like pumpkin pie! They’re also super easy to make and require minimal ingredients. They don’t require any baking either – simply roll the dough into balls, pop them in the fridge for a little and enjoy!
This recipe is dairy-free/vegan/gluten-free and free of refined sugar. I love making a big batch of these to snack on throughout the day and also loveeee crumbling one up on top of my oatmeal or smoothie!
