I’m all about the pumpkin. It’s one of the many things I adore about fall. I love the look of those orange beauties, and the flavor of anything pumpkin. I only wish the pumpkin bread, scones and pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks were healthy! Oh well, these little treats, along with my Pumpkin Pancakes (see Recipes), and Pumpkin Pie Minis (recipe coming soon) will suffice. They do contain chocolate chips, taking the healthy factor down a notch, but it’s a small amount and just enough to make you feel like you’ve been treated.
Healthy enough for a snack and just sweet enough for dessert, these pumpkin treats are quick and easy to make. Blend rolled oats in a blender or food processor to a fine powder if you don't have oat flour. While they are wheat-free, they can only be considered officially gluten-free when using certified gluten-free oats and oat flour.
