Jack-O’-Lantern Protein Balls

Jack-O’-Lantern Protein Balls

These protein balls feature a delicious combination of peanut butter, pumpkin, cinnamon, and Vanilla Shakeology.

It’s the perfect balance of satisfying protein, with fall flavors to make you swoon. You can swap out peanut butter for almond butter, cashew butter, or even sunflower seed butter (to make it nut-free).

And if you happen to have pumpkin pie spice on hand, you could swap it for the cinnamon.

Mini chocolate chips and pretzels transform these treats into mini jack-o’-lanterns.
