Peel the ripe banana and mash it thoroughly in a medium-sized mixing bowl until smooth.
Add the rolled oats, medjool dates, almond butter, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, chia seeds, and salt into a food processor.
Pulse the mixture for about 15-20 seconds until the ingredients are combined and the dates are broken down, creating a sticky mixture.
Transfer the processed mixture into the mixing bowl with the mashed banana. Stir everything together using a spatula until fully combined.
Place the unsweetened shredded coconut on a plate or shallow dish.
Scoop out about one tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a small ball.
Roll the ball in the shredded coconut to coat it lightly. Repeat the process with the remaining mixture.
Place the bliss balls on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Serve chilled as a snack or light dessert. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
