Instructions
Pulse dates, peanut butter, and vanilla in food processor until paste forms. Remove from processor.
In a separate bowl, combine pecans, oats, and cinnamon. Add to food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form.
Add date paste and pulse until dough forms. You can add water or more vanilla extract, if dough is crumbly. Texture will depend on the freshness of the dates..
Using a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon, scoop dough into palms and squeeze to form balls [do not roll, as they may fall apart]. Repeat until approximately 12 bites are formed.
Dust with additional cinnamon if desired and refrigerate for 30 minutes or more.
