Ingredients
- 1/4 cup whole wheat flour I use atta
- 1 tablespoon vegan butter or oil
- 1 tablespoon flax meal
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom or seeds from 2 green cardamom pods crushed lightly
- 2 tablespoons cashews chopped, raw or roasted, unsalted
- 8-10 dates soft medjool dates are the best
- salt good pinch
Instructions
- Roast your wheat flour in a skillet over medium heat for 10-15 minutes.
- Keep stirring so that the flour doesn't burn. Stir occasionally for the first 5 minutes. It will get evenly hot and will tend to burn faster after 5 mins so keep stirring frequently then
- Once the flour starts to smell fragrant and has changed color to a significantly darker shade evenly, you can add the flax meal, almond flour, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and mix and add in the vegan butter.
- Continue to roast for another 3-4 minutes over medium heat and then take off heat.
- Add the dates and the cardamom to a food processor and process until the dates break down.
- Then add in the cashews and wheat flour mixture and process until the mixture is well combined into fat crumbs.
- Check to see if you can make it into even ladoo balls.
- If it's not sticking as much, add 1 or 2 more dates or a few sprinkles of water and then process again. Shape into balls of preferred size and store.
- You can store this on the counter for up to 5 days or refrigerate for a longer life for up to a month.
Notes
- Use other flours to make Glutenfree, such as oat flour or sorghum flour
- Add pistachios or hazelnuts instead of cashews, if you want
- Nutfree: omit the almond flour and cashews. Use 2 tbsp more wheat flour
