These Paleo Vegan Pumpkin Pie Bites are quick to make and taste just like classic pumpkin pie. They are no-bake as well as gluten free, dairy free, and naturally sweetened.
These little bites are so quick to make and mixed up in a bowl. No tools needed which is nice. They take just a few minutes to make and roll, but are best after chilled in the fridge for a couple hours to get that true pumpkin pie taste. The best way to kick off the start of fall!
Date Free
I love using dates for little bites like these, but I know some people don’t like dates or can’t tolerate them. These are sweetened with maple syrup and are held together with that and the coconut oil. And because they are date free it means they are just mixed up in a bowl, not a food processor. They are less chewy/sticky then the date ones and more like cookie dough texture which isn’t a bad thing.
I think these will become a new fall favorite. They are are quick to make and are such a great little treat. Some of the ingredients use:
- Pumpkin Pie Spice- to give these the classic flavor
- Cinnamon- Ceylon cinnamon is by far my favorite. I didn't know there was a difference in cinnamon until I tried this one. It's not required, but I highly recommend trying it.
- Chia seeds- these are optional, but add a nice little texture
- Maple Syrup- the sweetener that is used and is my favorite. It pairs especially well with pumpkin
I know you will love these paleo vegan pumpkin pie bites because they are soft, sweet, and spiced just right. Here are some more bites to try:

What can I substitute coconut oil with?
Jessica DeMay says
It's needed to help hold the bites together since it hardens in the fridge. You could try ghee which also hardens in the fridge.
Savannah says
I'm allergic to almonds, any substitute flour I can use instead?
Jessica DeMay says
A gluten free flour should work

Is the pumpkin canned or cooked and then puréed
Many thanks!
Jessica DeMay says
I always used canned! It's easy and consistent in texture.
KELLY says
So easy and I had all ingredients on hand, took like 10 minutes from start to finish. Put them in the freezer to really chill them. Will make again!!
