½ cup pumpkin puree
1 cup quick oats
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp maple syrup, optional

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Mash the banana until mostly smooth, then stir in the pumpkin puree until well combined.
Add the oats and cinnamon. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated and the mixture becomes thick and scoopable.
Add the maple syrup and mini chocolate chips (optional)
Scoop the mixture onto the baking sheet, using about 1 tablespoon per bite.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the bites feel set and the edges are lightly golden.
