  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread oats and almonds evenly in a single layer on a baking sheet, careful to not mix and keep separate. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes, turning over occasionally, until lightly toasted; remove from the oven and cool.
  2. Process avocado, dates, 1/2 cup toasted almonds, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt in a food processor until mixture is finely chopped and sticky. Stir in 1 cup toasted oats.
  3. Transfer to a medium bowl and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
  4. Form 20 bite-sized balls using your palms. Roll balls in remaining toasted oats and almonds. Place on a tray lined with parchment paper. Store in the refrigerator for up to three days.
