  • ½ cup chopped60 gWalnutsfinely chopped
  • ⅔ cup50 gOld-fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup40 gSweetened shredded coconutdivided
  • ¼ cup60 gPumpkin puree, canned
  • 2 tbsp32 gAlmond butter, no salt addedstirred well

Steps

  1. Chop the walnuts finely and set aside. Divide the shredded coconut: three-quarters goes into the dough, the remaining quarter is for rolling.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the pumpkin, almond butter, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Stir in the cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and ground flaxseed.
  4. Add the oats, the walnuts and the three-quarters portion of shredded coconut, and stir until evenly combined into a thick, sticky dough.
  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight, at least 8 hours, so the oats soften and the dough firms.
  6. Scoop the chilled dough into 12 even balls, rolling each between damp palms.
  7. Spread the remaining quarter of the shredded coconut on a plate and roll each ball in it to coat.
  8. Serve 3 bites per person. Keep leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.
