Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

22 Medjool dates, pitted

⅔ cup finely chopped almonds, divided

½ cup shredded unsweetened coconut

⅓ cup pumpkin puree

⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1 pinch salt

Directions

Combine dates, 1/3 cup almonds, coconut, pumpkin puree, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in a food processor. Blend until well combined. Roll spoonfuls of mixture into balls between your palms; place on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet.

Place remaining 1/3 cup almonds on a plate. Roll balls in the almonds until coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, at least 1 hour.

Cook's Notes:

Use 1/3 cup shaved dark chocolate in place of cocoa powder if desired.

If you want a creamier texture, blend in more pumpkin puree. If you want it drier, add more coconut.
