These vegan- and paleo-friendly Pumpkin Pie Bites are great for a seasonal, healthy treat. These cookies fall into the category of Energy Bites, meaning that they are a no-bake treat full of energizing ingredients.

Vegan Pumpkin Pie Energy Bites

This Pumpkin Pie Energy Bite recipe is a tweak on my classic Chocolate-Coconut version, but with the addition of pumpkin pie spice for that distinctively yummy pumpkin pie flavor. I’ve actually just updated this recipe to include a dusting of maple sugar on the outside.

I always make a batch this way for an anniversary party that I usually attend at my former gym around this time, and I know my health-minded friends will love them. Besides how clean the ingredients are in these Pumpkin Pie Bites, I just love how they only take 10 minutes or less to make. All you need are (clockwise, from top left in photo):

I’ve updated this recipe with a “how to” video!

I’ll be making another batch for a Halloween party this year. I honestly can’t get over making energy bites as a healthy treat to have on hand. Sometimes I make a double batch and freeze one. They only take about 30 minutes of de-frosting time in the fridge.

Description

  • 1 1/2 cups almonds
  • ¼ cup hemp seeds
  • ¼ cup unsweetened dried shredded coconut
  • ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 10 pitted Medjool dates, about 1 cup
  • For pumpkin pie spice dusting:
  • 2 tablespoon maple sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon

Ingredients

  1. Combine almonds, hemp seeds, coconut, pumpkin pie spice, coconut oil, and dates in the base of a food processor. Turn the processor on high for about 2 minutes. The ingredients should be well combined.
  2. Pour the mixture into a mixing bowl and then use your hands to roll the dough into about 12-15 cookies, about 1-1/2” in diameter.
  3. To make the pumpkin pie spice dusting, place the maple sugar and pumpkin pie spice onto a plate. Roll each cookie in the sugar until covered.
  4. Place the cookies in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours to chill. The cookies can then be served cold or at room temperature.

  3. I know I would love these but would be afraid to make them for ‘me’ since they would be gone by the end of the day (in me!) But I will make them this week because my almost ten year job cooking for four men who live together is coming to an end. I’ll make these for my guys and I’m sure they’ll love them and I’ll be able to have one or maybe two to try.

    • Hi Judy! You made me smile with your comment about making the cookies for yourself and then eating them all yourself. Wow, it sounds like you have some big changes ahead with your job, although cooking for four men sounds like a BIG job! I hope you have some good opportunities ahead. XO.

  4. Hi Carrie,

    These little bites sound so tasty and healthy. Sure look like there easy to make too. Would make a wonderful and healthy snack for kids and adults too. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays. Pinned & tweeted!

  5. I had to look up pumpkin pie spice ingredients and almost forgot it’s a blend of 4 or 5 spices (found a DIY recipe in The Old Farmer’s Almanac). I think I’ve subbed allspice in a pinch when it’s a tiny amount. I love cocoa powder so that is not an option, it’s mandatory for the chocolate fix. Thanks for the recipe.

  6. These little bites are adorable! And as someone who doesn’t tolerate pumpkin well, I was quite excited to see there is no actual pumpkin in them – just the spice flavouring. These would be perfect for any halloween get together.
    “BTW, do you like to dress up?” YES!!! How do you not??? ;p

    • Hi Kimmy!!! That’s interesting about not tolerating pumpkin well. I’m kind of the same way with sweet potatoes. I just read your post about loving Halloween…I guess we must be opposites in that way. I did love Halloween when I was younger, but only for the candy part, not the dressing up part. 🙂 XOXOXOXO.
