As simple and as healthy as can be! Makes 10. Toss all the ingredients into the food processor and bake up a batch of these bite-size cookies.

1 cup walnut halves and pieces
5 dates, pitted and roughly chopped
1 teaspoon grapeseed oil
11/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of sea salt
