It’s pumpkin everything this time of year. When I saw Wild Friends create a new seasonal pumpkin spice peanut butter, I was so excited! I am a big fan of wild friends nut butters.
I’m not going to lie, I’ve been eating it straight from the jar with a spoon. I made energy bites with wild friends vanilla espresso flavor, so I created another energy bite recipe using this new nut butter!
Perfect little bite size snacks for on the go easy snacking.
Play around with the ingredients to create the perfect flavor for you!

Oooh, I was wondering how you got that fab pumpkin flavor in there – I’m honored that I got the “sneak peak” taste preview to these and now stoked to have the recipe, too. Thanks again – very thoughtful of you and the package made my day 🙂 Even my picky 7 year old wanted to try them – granted she didn’t finish hers but for her to want to try something new on her own is a big frickin deal 🙂
So glad you are enjoying them! I made these again with my kids cooking class and even those picky eaters like them too!
Who needs expensive “Bounce” balls from the shop when you can make just as good ones, if not better, at home?! Eating it straight from the jar, is only right also, I mean….It’s too darn good not to!
Thank you so much for the recipe, I hope you’re enjoying your weekend so far missy! 🙂 x
What are “bounce” balls?? I hope you are having a great weekend too 🙂
