Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a food processor, add pumpkin puree, peanut butter, maple syrup, toasted pecans, pumpkin pie spice, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, sea salt, and rolled oats. Pulse until combined, leaving some nut pieces for crunch.
  2. Using a cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Yield should be approximately 15 energy bites.
  3. Arrange the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for 30 minutes to firm up.
  4. While freezing, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
  5. Once frozen, drizzle chocolate over the energy bites and sprinkle with cinnamon. Freeze for an additional 10 minutes.
  6. Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying.
