Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 0.75 cup Coconut sugar
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Cardamom powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped pistachios
- 2 tablespoons Chopped almonds
Instructions
In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, add the almond flour and coconut flour.
Stir continuously to roast the flours until they become aromatic and change to a golden color, about 10 minutes. Be careful not to burn them.
Add the coconut oil to the skillet. Mix the oil thoroughly into the roasted flours. The mixture should appear slightly sticky and bind together.
Reduce the heat to low and add the coconut sugar and cardamom powder.
Continue to stir for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring the sugar dissolves completely and is well incorporated.
Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool slightly but not completely. It should be warm enough to handle.
Take a small portion of the mixture in your palms and roll it into a ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Garnish the laddoos by pressing the chopped pistachios and almonds into the tops of the laddoos.
Allow the laddoos to cool completely before serving or storing them in an airtight container.
