No-bake Pumpkin Spice Latte Balls
Servings: 18
Ingredients
1 cup almond butter. You can use any smooth nut or seed butter of choice
2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice (visit thebigmansworld.com for homemade pumpkin spice recipe)
2-3 tablespoons coconut flour
1 serving liquid sweetener of choice (optional, but highly recommended)
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, combine your almond butter with pumpkin puree and mix well.
Add your coconut flour, pumpkin pie spice and liquid sweetener.
Mix until fully incorporated and a thick batter remains. If the batter is too thin, add a little extra coconut flour.
Line a large plate with parchment paper.
Using your hands, form 18 small balls and place in the plate.
Pop into refrigerator until firm.
Tips
The latte balls should be kept refrigerated.
Check the batter and if the batter is too thin, add extra coconut flour. Too thick or crumbly? Add some extra liquid (milk, if you have no dairy restrictions).
For a non-keto option, use pure maple syrup or agave nectar.
These are also freezer-friendly. Simply thaw for about 10 minutes and enjoy!
