Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup nut butter (such as almond or peanut butter)
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour (or 3/4 to 1 cup almond flour)
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 tsp salt (only if nut butter isn’t salted)
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 cup melted chocolate (for dipping)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil (optional, to add to melted chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the nut butter, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until smooth and well incorporated.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Add coconut flour (or almond flour), pumpkin pie spice, and salt to the bowl. Mix until all ingredients form a consistent dough without lumps.
  3. Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Fold in the mini chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough. Then, place the bowl in the refrigerator and chill for 10 minutes to firm up the mixture.
  4. Melt Chocolate for Dipping: While the dough chills, melt the chocolate in 30-second increments in the microwave, stirring each time. Add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to the chocolate for a smooth texture and shine.
  5. Form Bites and Dip: Remove the dough from the fridge and roll it into bite-sized balls. Using a fork, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off before placing on a parchment-lined tray.
  6. Set and Store: Refrigerate or freeze the dipped bites until the chocolate hardens completely. Store these pumpkin bites in the fridge or freezer to maintain freshness and firmness until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Use almond flour if you prefer a nuttier flavor and slightly different texture than coconut flour.
  • If your nut butter is salted, omit the extra salt or adjust to taste.
  • Adding coconut oil to melted chocolate helps achieve a glossy finish and smooth texture.
  • Store finished pumpkin bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer for up to two weeks.
  • For a nut-free option, consider using sunflower seed butter instead of nut butter.
