This dish is gluten-free, vegan and paleo.

Yield: 15 servings

1½ cups raw almonds
¼ cup hemp seeds
¼ cup unsweetened dried shredded coconut
½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 Tbsp coconut oil
¼ cup pumpkin puree
10 pitted Medjool dates, about 1 cup

For pumpkin pie spice dusting:
2 Tbsp coconut sugar
¼ tsp pumpkin pie spice

Combine the almonds, hemp seeds, coconut, pumpkin pie spice, coconut oil, pumpkin puree and dates in the base of a food processor. Turn the processor on high for about two minutes or until the ingredients are well combined.

Pour the mixture into a mixing bowl and then use your hands to roll the dough into about 15 cookies, each about 1½ inch in diameter.

To make the pumpkin pie spice dusting, place the coconut sugar and pumpkin pie spice onto a plate. Roll each cookie in the sugar until covered.

For the best texture and sweetness, place the cookies in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours to chill.

Chef’s notes: Freeze these cookies for up to 2 months in a tightly sealed container. Defrost them in the fridge for about 4 hours before serving. For refined sugar-free servings, leave off the coconut sugar dusting. You can easily double or triple this recipe depending on how many energy bites you need to make.
