Ingredients
- 1 cup dried jujubes, pitted and chopped
- 1 cup walnuts
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt

Method
- Combine chopped jujubes, walnuts, rolled oats, and chia seeds in a processor and pulse until the mixture becomes a coarse, crumbly texture.
- Add honey or maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the mixture in the food processor. Pulse again until the mixture starts to come together.
- The mixture should be sticky enough to form into balls, if needed, add a bit more honey or maple syrup and pulse again.
