These pumpkin spice energy bites are perfect for when you need a quick energy-boosting snack or you’re rushed for time in the morning and need a quick breakfast. They are loaded with healthy proteins, fats, and fiber, meaning they will satisfy your tastes, help stave off hunger, and keep your blood sugar levels stable. I personally love having one of these with some tea as an afternoon treat. Enjoy!
