lives okay so here's the deal i'm a mom
0:29
of four cute kids and I currently am
0:33
living on about 48 seconds of sleep a

0:57
about giving my kids they're full of
0:58
good for you stuff and they really do
1:01
give you some energy like instead we're
1:02

1:13
like this one they're all super good so
1:16
let's jump in and get started on this
1:21
the first ingredient is 1 and 1/2 cups
1:23
of quick oats you could have used
1:25
oldfashioned but I recommend using quick
1:27
oats for this recipe next we're going to
1:29
add about a/2 cup of pure pumpkin puree
1:32
now you want to make sure this isn't
1:34
pumpkin pie filling but just the puree
1:37
after that we've got a/2 cup of natural
1:40
peanut butter make sure that you're
1:41
checking the ingredients label make sure
1:44
that there's just peanuts in your peanut
1:46
butter not a ton of additional sugar
1:48
otherwise these aren't as healthy as
1:50
they could be now for seasonings I've
1:52
added some cinnamon and some pumpkin pie
1:54
spice now the sweetener we use honey in
1:57
this recipe and here's my trick for
1:58
honey spray your measuring cup with some
2:02
non-stick cooking spray before you
2:04
measure out your honey honey is so hard
2:06
to pour it all in and to clean it once
2:09
you're done but if you do that it comes
2:11
out so easily after that I'm going to
2:14
add two teaspoon of flax seed meal this
2:16
is what binds the bites together so you
2:19
don't want to miss this then we've got
2:21
one teaspoon of vanilla extract pour
2:24
that in this ingredient is optional but
2:28
I like to add 1/4 cup of vanilla protein
2:31
powder just to add a little more protein
2:33
to this snack the last one is optional
2:37
but I like to add 1/4 cup of chocolate
2:40
chips because let's be honest pumpkin
2:42
pie spice and chocolate chips go hand in
2:44
hand mix it all together and then take a
2:47
baking sheet lined with foil and you're
2:49
going to roll the dough into balls
2:51
they're about 1 in out of each batch i
2:54
can usually get about 24 balls once you
2:57
get those all rolled stick them in the
2:59
freezer for about an hour and your snack
3:01
is ready to eat make sure that you
