Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Almonds
- 1/4 cup Chia Seeds organic, if possible
Sweeteners & Flavor
- 1/8 cup Raisins finely chopped
- 4 Medjool Dates pitted and finely chopped
- 1/8 tsp Cardamom ground
Instructions
- Dry roast the almonds over medium heat, tossing frequently to prevent burning. Roast until fragrant and lightly golden, about 8-10 minutes. This enhances their nutty flavor and creates a pleasant crunch.
- If desired, blanch and peel the almonds before roasting for a smoother texture.
- In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the roasted almonds and chia seeds. Pulse until coarsely ground.
- Add the chopped dates, raisins, and ground cardamom to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture comes together to form a slightly sticky dough. The dates act as a natural binder.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion between your palms to form round laddus.
- Store the laddus in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 10 days.
