- Form Bites: Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, shape the mixture into bite-sized balls and place them on a tray or plate.

Notes
- You can substitute almond flour with oat flour for a slightly different texture.
- Use maple syrup instead of honey to keep the bites vegan-friendly.
- If the mixture feels too dry, add a tablespoon of almond milk or water.
- For extra crunch, consider adding chopped nuts or seeds.
- These protein bites are best stored refrigerated and consumed within 5 days.
