Add pitted dates, almond butter, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to a food processor. Blend for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the dates break down into a thick paste and mix with the nut butter.
Add the rolled oats and raisins and pulse for about 30 seconds, or until the oats are lightly chopped and evenly incorporated. The mixture should look slightly coarse and stick together when squeezed in your hand.
If it feels too dry to hold its shape, blend in a little more almond butter or peanut butter. Medjool dates usually create a softer, fudgier mixture, while Deglet Noor dates make these no bake oatmeal raisin energy balls slightly firmer and less sweet.
Step 2: Shape and enjoy
