Pumpkin Oat Balls
Who else loves FALL!?! Best season of the year in my opinion. :)
I recently stocked up on pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, sweet potatoes, and different types of squash. I love the flavors and scents this time of year.
Also, why do I love pumpkin patches so much?! :) Gah! So fun.
Since I love quick and easy treats (who doesn’t…!), I took out my usual no-bake ingredients with a few fall ingredients and whipped up little delicious bites. They don’t take long to make and they are clean, clean, clean to eat. I don't like feeling guilty after eating treats, so I like to have some healthier options when I have a sweets craving.
Enjoy!
