Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Fold in sesame seeds, almonds, and raisins until evenly distributed.

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them apart.

Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.

Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
