Instructions
In a food processor, combine almonds and oats. Process on high until a meal is formed (this may take a minute or two).
Once the desired consistency is reached, add in the dates, coconut oil, coconut nectar, and almond extract. Blend on high until a doughy mixture forms - the dates should be finely chopped up.
When done, form the dough into little balls. You can serve them as is, or flatten them into little cookies.
If desired, dehydrate the cookies in your oven at its lowest temperature for 1-2 hours. Note, if your oven goes higher than 115 degrees, prop the door open with some rolled-up tin foil so some of the heat can escape.
