In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
Add Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients. Mix until the yogurt is fully incorporated.
Gradually add warm water to the mixture while kneading to form a dough. The dough should be soft yet firm enough to hold shape. If it's too sticky, add a bit more almond flour.
Divide the dough into four equal parts and roll each portion into a ball.
Place one ball between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out evenly to form a round disc about 5-6 inches in diameter. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Heat ghee or coconut oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
Fry each bhatura one at a time. Gently slide a rolled dough disc into the hot oil. It should float to the surface and puff up. Spoon hot oil over the top of the bhatura to help it puff fully.
Cook each side for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown and remove to drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serve the Keto Bhaturas warm with your choice of keto-friendly curries or dips.
