    Energy bites are so perfect for my household. We're always on the go and need something filling but quick to eat. I love that this one is perfect for the fall season. I'll have to give it a try as my old recipe is a bit too predictable. ;)

    I haven't ever tried any energy bites, but I've been seeing a lot of different kinds around lately. I need to try these. This would be a nice healthy treat when we just need a little something between meals to keep us going. Thanks for sharing!

    How many pecans does the recipe call for? All I saw was 1/2 pecans. I was guessing 1/2 a cup, but want to make sure before I try it. :)

      Hi Rachel, so sorry about that typo. Yes it is 1/2 cup pecans but those are optional and not a required ingredient. Thank you!

      Hi Tina, I think you commented on the wrong recipe. However, with the pumpkin crepes it all depends on the size of crepe you make and the amount of filling you use for each one. You can easily make 6-12 servings but again depends on your personal measurements.

          It really depends on how big you make the balls so that part is entirely up to you. :)
