• rolled oats ¾ cup
• cashews ½ cup
• shredded coconut ¼ cup
• graham cracker crumbs 3 Tbsp

1. 1

   Add pitted Medjool dates , rolled oats (old-fashioned), cashews , unsweetened shredded coconut , graham cracker crumbs , the grated zest of limes , fresh lime juice , and vanilla extract to a food processor . Blend until the mixture looks sticky and holds together when pressed between your fingers, about 1 to 2 minutes . If the mixture feels too dry, add 1 more date or a small splash of lime juice.
2. 2

   Scoop about 1 tablespoon of mixture at a time and roll into balls.
3. 3

   Roll the balls in additional shredded coconut mixed with extra lime zest so the zest sticks to the outside.
