Can I use a different protein powder than hemp seed?

Yes, the recipe suggests hemp seed protein powder, but you can use your protein of choice. Adjust liquid slightly if needed, as different proteins absorb differently.

My mixture is too sticky to roll; what should I do?

If your mixture is too sticky, try adding a little more coconut flour, a tablespoon at a time, until it's firm enough to roll into bites. Chilling the mixture briefly can also help.

How should I store these Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Protein Bites?

Place the finished bites in an airtight container and store them in the fridge. They will firm up nicely when chilled.

Can I adjust the amount of pumpkin pie spice?

Absolutely. The recipe calls for 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice, but you can increase or decrease it to suit your taste preference.

Can I use a different sweetener instead of maple syrup?

While maple syrup provides moisture and sweetness, you could try agave nectar as a direct substitute. Other liquid sweeteners might alter the texture slightly.
