Heat a dry skillet over medium heat and add the white sesame seeds. Toast them for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they become golden and start releasing a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly.
In the same skillet, lightly toast the almond flour over low heat for 2-3 minutes while stirring, just until fragrant. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
In a food processor, add the pitted dates, toasted sesame seeds, almond flour, coconut oil, cardamom powder, and sea salt.
Pulse the mixture in the food processor until it comes together into a sticky dough. Scrape down the sides as needed during the process.
Once the mixture is well combined and holds together when pressed, take small portions of the dough (about 2 tablespoons each) and roll them into smooth, firm balls using your palms.
Repeat the process until all the dough is used up. You should get approximately 12 laddus.
Store the laddus in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
