## Instructions
1. **Preheat oven** to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. **Mix all ingredients** in a large bowl until fully combined.
3. **Form small bite-sized balls** or patties using your hands or a small cookie scoop. Place them evenly on the baking sheet.
4. **Bake for 18–20 minutes**, or until golden and firm to the touch. Flip halfway through for extra crispness.
5. **Serve warm** with dipping sauce — or just straight off the tray (no judgment).

## Real Talk: Why Triple the Recipe?
Because they vanish. Fast. Whether it’s after-school snack time, a weekend lunch, or part of a dinner plate, these bites disappear faster than we can bake them.
We tried doubling the recipe. That worked… for a few weeks. But now? We go all in and **triple it** — because between the kids, us adults, and the occasional neighbor dropping by, they just don’t last.
Bonus: the leftovers (if any) taste *even better* the next day.
