Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for pan frying)
- 2 tablespoons Ghee
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Gradually add warm water to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a dough begins to form. The dough should be smooth and slightly sticky.
Let the dough rest for approximately 10 minutes. This allows the flours and husk to absorb the moisture and the dough to firm up.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and form each portion into a ball.
On a clean surface dusted lightly with almond flour, roll out each dough ball into a thin circle, about 8 inches in diameter. Ensure they are as thin as possible while still being able to handle the roll without tearing.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add half of the butter.
Place one rolled-out dough piece onto the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, until you see bubbles forming on the surface.
Flip the roti and add a small amount of ghee around the edges. Cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
Using a spatula or clean towel, break up the roti by crushing and folding it into an accordion shape (mimicking the traditional buss up shut style).
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining dough pieces, adding more butter to the skillet as necessary.
Serve warm with your favorite keto-friendly curry or stew.
