In a food processor, pulse the flour, almonds, sesame seeds, salt, and spices. Add the butter and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal. With the machine running, add the egg yolk and ice water through the feed tube in a slow, steady stream. Process until the dough just comes together (do not overprocess).
