  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

  • 1 cup no salt added creamy drippy almond butter
  • ⅓ cup canned pumpkin

Instructions

  1. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, add the almond butter, canned pumpkin, cinnamon, honey, vanilla protein powder, rolled oats, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Use a rubber spatula to stir everything well until fully combined.
  2. Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the mixture until evenly distributed.
