  2. Add rolled oats and pumpkin spice to the mixing bowl. Stir until everything is completely combined.
  3. If you’re using chocolate chips, fold them in gently to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture.
  4. Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls—about 1 inch in diameter.

  6. Serve chilled, and enjoy your delicious, no-bake treats!

Notes

To ensure perfect bites, consider nut butter substitutions for allergies, adjust sweetness to taste, and store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for three months.
