    PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE BALLS INGREDIENTS

    My pumpkin balls recipe is filled with healthy ingredients!

    • Pumpkin puree
    • Almond butter
    • Almond flour
    • Pure maple syrup
    • Pure vanilla extract
    • Pumpkin pie spice

    WHAT MAKES PUMPKIN SPICE BITES HEALTHY

    • Pumpkins are not only just a fun fall decoration! They are actually extremely nutritious! Pumpkins are not only rich in the powerful antioxidant beta carotene, but also a good source of fiber, vitamin C, potassium, copper, manganese, vitamin B 2, vitamin E, and iron!
    • Almond butter is a good source of healthy fats and protein! You can alternatively substitute peanut butter in this recipe, which is similar in nutrient composition to almond butter.
    • Almond flour is made from ground up almonds. It is a great alternative to conventional all-purpose flour. It has all the benefits that almonds would have! And since it is made from almonds rather than processed white flour, it does not spike your blood sugars.
    • Maple syrup is a sweetener, and while it still has the sugar, it contains some nutrients! It has some calcium, potassium, iron, zinc, and manganese. ⅓ cup actually contains >100% of the recommended daily intake of manganese! I’d say it is still a better alternative to processed white sugar!

    HOW TO MAKE MY HEALTHY PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE BITES

    Make my healthy pumpkin cheesecake bites without cream cheese!

    STEP 1- MIX THE NO BAKE PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE DOUGH

    Add all ingredients to a medium sized mixing bowl:

    • ⅓ cup of pumpkin puree
    • ⅓ cup of almond butter
    • 1 cup of almond flour
    • 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup
    • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
    • 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice

    Mix the pumpkin cheesecake batter until completely combined. Refrigerate the dough until no longer sticky.

    STEP 2- ROLL PUMPKIN BALLS AND FREEZE

    Roll your batter into 12 bite sized balls.

    Place them on a plate and cover with parchment paper.

    Put them in the freezer to harden up and make it easier to dip in chocolate.

    STEP 3- DIP IN MELTED WHITE CHOCOLATE

    When you are ready to eat them, pull them out and let them thaw at room temperature for at least 15 minutes. This will give you a nice cheesecake like texture!

    Or, dip them in melted white or dark chocolate!

    Melted white chocolate shell:

    • 1 cup organic white chocolate chips
    • 2 tablespoons coconut oil

    Freeze again for about 10 minutes to set the white chocolate.

    HOW TO STORE NO BAKE PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE BALLS

    These can be stored either in the fridge or the freezer. I like to store them in the freezer, because they last longer and they hold their shape a lot better. But, if you plan to eat them quickly and don’t want to wait for them to thaw out, the fridge would be a better option.

    Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week and in the freezer for up to a month!

    FAQ'S

    Frequently asked questions about my healthy pumpkin cheesecake bites recipe.

    CAN I USE DARK CHOCOLATE INSTEAD OF WHITE CHOCOLATE TO DIP THE PUMPKIN BALLS?

    Yes!

    HOW DO I MAKE HEALTHY PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE BARS INSTEAD?

    Press all the pumpkin cheesecake dough into a parchment paper lined 8 x 8 baking dish. Freeze about 10 minutes to set. Pour melted white chocolate over the top. Freeze another 10 minutes to set. Cut into squares and enjoy!

    WHAT CAN I USE INSTEAD OF ALMOND BUTTER?

    You can use cashew butter in place of almond butter. I wouldn't use peanut butter because the flavor of peanuts will overpower the pumpkin pie spice flavor.

    WHAT CAN I USE INSTEAD OF MAPLE SYRUP?

    You can use honey, date syrup, or agave nectar in place of maple syrup.

      Its fine, but certainly not a "cheesecake" without cream cheese.

      I'm dairy free and I'm so happy to see there's no cream cheese or imitation cream cheese (usually full of additives!) I made them and they have such a light and fluffy texture. So good! Thank you !!

      These are so good!! I dipped half of mine in white chocolate and half in dark chocolate. My whole family loved them even my kids! I'm definitely making these for our Halloween party at the end of the month!

      I love using nut butters in place of cream cheese! Thanks for such an easy to follow recipe and so many options for replacements! Can't wait to make these this week as soon as I grab almond butter ! I never thought to use these pumpkin too in place of cream cheese for a vegan dairy free option. So excited!
