Gluten free No Bake Pumpkin Spiced Cookie Dough Bites! A pumpkin cookie treat that’s easy to make, tastes delicious, and protein packed! A healthy snack to satisfy your sweet tooth!
It’s October… how did that happen? Either way, I’m excited! A new month brings new FLAVORS! And Fall flavors in particular. In fact, my twitter and pinterest is blowing up with ALL THINGS PUMPKIN. Think we’ll get sick of it by Christmas? Hope not! Here’s my newest pumpkin recipe you gotta try! No Bake Pumpkin Spiced Cookie Dough Bites
But wait..
It’s not your average pumpkin recipe. Nope. It’s way better, there might be some white chocolate and cookie dough texture involved.
How does No bake Pumpkin Spiced Cookie Dough Sound? Um, ya… you’re drooling now, right?
Actually, I should add that these are pumpkin “pumped” cookie bites since they have a little extra protein too. So yes, you can have holiday treats that are actually somewhat healthy. I don’t know about you, but I’m all about that.

Description
No Bake Pumpkin Spiced Cookie Dough Bites {gluten free}
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips (dark chocolate chips from Enjoy Life Foods.)
- ¼ to ⅓ cup coconut flour (can also substitute for peanut flour, oat flour, or almond flour)
- ⅓ cup peanut butter
- ¼ cup melted white chocolate
- 1 cup Vanilla Protein Powder
- ¼ to ⅓ cup honey or maple syrup.
- ½ tsp Vanilla Extract.
- 1–2 tablespoon Pumpkin Spice
- Optional- for more crunchy texture, add in 3 tablespoon chopped nuts
Instructions
- In large bowl, add in all your dry ingredients. Then mix in your nut butters, extracts, melted white chocolate, and last the honey. Mix well ( I use my hands) and roll into bite size balls. When cooled, roll bites in more pumpkin spice! Makes about 20-22 balls. Feel free to roll into larger bites, or smaller to make more. Freeze or keep in refrigerator to maintain freshness.
- NOTE: Add more protein if batter is too runny. Add more nut butter or honey if it’s too dry. Just depends on the type of nut butters you use and the oil in it.
Notes
if you don’t have protein powder, you can use peanut flour or oat flour but it will not be as sweet.
- Prep Time: 10 min
These are UNREAL! I may be a wee bit bias though.
The white chocolate addition (as mentioned in recipe) just happens to be ghirardelli white chocolate and is melted to perfection. A little goes a long way so it definitely sweetens these up without adding a ton of sugar. BLISS!
No baking, no food guilt, no gluten, no sharing. Okay I lied about the last one, yes, do share these No Bake Pumpkin Spiced Cookie Dough Bites.
But don’t worry about oversharing! The good new is, you can make as many batches of these bites as you want and store them in the freezer for up to 6 weeks. That means you’ll have to plenty to last through the Fall and holidays, even if you do share!
So are you ready for Fall flavors and all things pumpkin yet? I hope so!
Favorite pumpkin spiced Fall recipe?

Chris
I haven’t had a single thing pumpkin yet this year… but this might undo my withholding. Wow. That’s a lot of sexiness in this post. I may be too overwhelmed with the foreplay of those spreads to last long enough to finish the recipe!
