No-Bake Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Balls
No-bake oatmeal raisin cookie balls are chewy and taste just like the cookie but are full of only wholesome ingredients! They’re also nut-free, gluten-free, vegan and have no added sugar.
Yield: 9 -10 cookie balls
Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- ½ cup packed Medjool dates, pitted and chopped (about 5-6 large dates)
- ½ cup raisins
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- 1-3 tablespoons water, as needed (see notes)
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients into your food processor. Pulse, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until everything is well combined. Add extra water as needed to get the mixture to come together (see notes, below).
- Wet hands and roll mixture into golf ball-sized cookie balls. Enjoy!
Notes
I usually need 2-3 tablespoons of water to get the mixture to come together. It will depend on how dry your dates are. Add a bit at a time and wait till the mixture sticks to itself so you can roll it into balls.
It also helps to wet your palms with a little bit of water before rolling these up so they don't stick to your palms.
Storage: Store extra cookie balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
