We love protein balls around here. It was time for a new flavor profile, so today I made these pumpkin protein balls. Ahhhhhh, you are going to love them!
I put all the ingredients into a big mixing bowl:
1 cup protein powder ( ITP, SFH, or Progenex Vanilla would be great or any other flavor that would make sense, like Cinnamon Roll )
1/2 cup coconut oil, not melted (tropicaltraditions.com, my favorite)
2 TBSP raw honey
2 TBSP raw almond butter
2 cups unsweetened coconut chips (the chunky coconut from nuts.com)
1/2 cup pumpkin
2 TBSP coconut milk (or organic milk)
1 TBSP pumpkin pie spice
I stirred them up with a wooden spoon and scooped them out onto parchment paper on a cookie sheet. Scooping with a cookie scoop made this job quick and easy, AND they all come out the same size.
I popped them into the freezer for after dinner. Pumpkin is a nutritional powerhouse, like Ger!
Enjoy!
