👩🍳 Instructions:
Blend oats and nuts in a food processor until finely ground.
Add dates, carrots, cinnamon, and salt to the processor. Blend until a sticky dough forms.
Scrape down sides as needed. If the mixture is too dry, add a teaspoon of water or maple syrup; if too wet, add more oats.
Roll into small balls using your hands (about 1 tbsp each).
Chill in the fridge for 20–30 minutes to firm up.
Store in the fridge (up to 1 week) or freezer (up to 1 month).
