Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread oats and almonds onto a baking sheet. Toast until the almonds are golden brown and the rolled oats are lightly golden, 7 to 8 minutes. Let cool.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine dates, almond butter, hemp seeds, flax seeds, cocoa nibs, cocoa powder, coconut oil, cinnamon, salt, and toasted oats and almonds. Blend until the dates are smooth and the mixture begins to stick together, forming large clumps.
Shape the mixture into balls, 1 teaspoon each and roll in shredded coconut to coat. Cover and chill the balls at least 2 hours before serving.
