Method
- Add all ingredients except the rolling oats and coconut into your Vitamix or food processor. If using a Vitamix, start on variable speed 1 and ramp up to 10, then blend on high for about 30 seconds, using the tamper to push ingredients into the blade. Stop before it turns into a paste — you want to see some texture from the nuts and carrots.
- Check the mixture. It should hold together when pressed but not feel wet or sticky. If it seems too moist, stir in a little extra flax or chia seeds and let it sit for a minute to absorb.
- Spread the extra oats (and coconut, if using) on a plate. Roll the mixture into balls — roughly a heaping tablespoon each — then roll them through the oats or coconut to coat. This keeps them from sticking together.
- If you're drizzling with white chocolate, melt it now and drizzle over the finished bites. Let them set for a few minutes before storing.

Notes
Lenny & Shalva's note: A food processor makes this easier — the Vitamix works fine but takes a little more attention to avoid over-blending. Watch the texture closely either way; a few extra seconds can take you from pleasantly chunky to baby food. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze them for up to a month. They're great straight from the freezer too.
