Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1/4 cup almond butter (or any nut butter of your choice)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chocolate chips or raisins (optional)

1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Blend Oats: In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the rolled oats and blend until they reach a flour-like consistency.

      Add Wet Ingredients: To the blended oats, add the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, almond butter, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and well combined.

        Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt to the mixture, blending until just combined.

          Mix Everything Together: If you’re adding chocolate chips or nuts, fold them into the batter using a spatula, ensuring they're evenly distributed.

            Scoop and Bake: Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the lined baking sheet. Flatten them slightly for even baking.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the bites are firm to the touch.

                Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the bites to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Enjoy: These bites can be enjoyed warm or stored in an airtight container for up to a week. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or a healthy dessert!
