Step 1

To the pitcher of a high-powered blender, add the oats and the cashews. Blend until a coarse meal, about 30 seconds. Add the dates and blend until well incorporated.

Step 2

Add the tahini, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, vanilla, and salt. Pulse, scraping down the sides with a spatula when necessary, until blended.

Step 3

Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and finish mixing with a spatula. The mixture should be the consistency of wet sand (and, also like wet sand, should hold when pressed together). If it's too dry, add a bit more tahini.

Step 4

Scoop out about 1 1/2 tablespoon at a time. Squeeze together tightly with your hands and form into a ball. If desired, roll ball in unsweetened shredded coconut. I like them equally with or without.

Step 5

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They keep for about 1 week.
