In a dry, heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat, toast the whole wheat flour, stirring constantly, until it turns a light golden brown and becomes aromatic. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Be careful not to burn the flour; low to medium heat is key. - 2
Remove the toasted flour from the heat and transfer it to a mixing bowl. Let it cool slightly.

Add the melted butter, date paste, cardamom powder, ginger powder, and cinnamon powder (if using) to the toasted flour.

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined and a crumble-like texture forms. You can use your hands to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: The mixture should hold together when pressed. - 5
If you prefer to make date balls, take small portions of the mixture and roll them between your palms. You can then roll the balls in sesame seeds or chopped nuts.
