Instructions:

Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin purée, almond butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the oats, pumpkin pie spice, salt, chia seeds or flaxseed (if using), and chocolate chips or dried cranberries.

Chill the Mixture: Refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes, so it's easier to handle. Roll into Bites: Once chilled, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. Store: Store the bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
