Chef's Note

For a no-bake version, simply skip the toasting step and mix all ingredients together. The toasting enhances the flavor of the nuts and oats, but it's optional if you're short on time. You can also customize this mix with your favorite nuts and dried fruits while maintaining the protein content from the whey powder.
