  • In a medium bowl, mix all of the ingredients together. Making sure to thoroughly mix so the pumpkin evenly coats everything and there are no lumps of pumpkin visible.

Notes

  1. I used unsweetened coconut flakes as that is what I had on hand. You could also use unsweetened shredded coconut if you can't find the flakes.  I would not recommend sweetened coconut.
  2. Make sure your pumpkin is pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling.
  3. See above for some possible mix in variations.
