Scale
- 1 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/3 cup canned 100% pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoon almond butter
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips
Instructions
- Line a baking tray or cookie sheet with parchment paper. Into a large bowl, add in the nonfat dry milk, old fashioned oats, honey, pumpkin puree, almond butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground ginger, and allspice.

Notes
- If the mixture is too sticky, add in a bit more dry milk powder or oats into the bowl. Also, washing your hands about halfway between rolling the balls will help.
- If the mixture is too dry, add in a bit more pumpkin puree or honey.
- Adding the protein balls onto parchment paper before placing them into the fridge will make them easier to manage after without sticking.
