Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 0.25 cup Chopped almonds
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.125 teaspoon Pinch of sea salt
Directions
Step 1
In a heavy-bottomed pan, heat the coconut oil over low heat.
Step 2
Add the almond flour to the pan and stir continuously to prevent burning. Roast the almond flour until it turns golden brown and aromatic, about 7-10 minutes.
Step 3
Once roasted, remove the pan from heat and allow the almond flour to cool slightly.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the roasted almond flour, maple syrup, ground cardamom, chopped almonds, shredded coconut, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step 5
Allow the mixture to cool until it is comfortable to handle.
Step 6
Take a small portion of the mixture in your hand (about 1.5 tablespoons) and shape it into a firm, round ball. Repeat this step with the remaining mixture.
Step 7
Place the laddu on a plate or tray and let them sit at room temperature for an hour to firm up, or refrigerate them for a faster set.
Step 8
Serve the paleo besan ka laddu at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to one week.
