Indulge in the guilt-free delight of Keto Puran Poli, a low-carb twist on the traditional Indian sweet flatbread. Perfect for those following a keto lifestyle, this recipe replaces wheat flour with almond and coconut flour, creating a soft and pliable dough enhanced with psyllium husk for structure. The filling features creamy chana dal sweetened with erythritol, infused with aromatic cardamom, nutmeg, and vanilla for an authentic yet keto-friendly flavor. Cooked to perfection in ghee, each poli boasts a golden, crisp exterior and a luscious, spiced filling. Ready in just over an hour, Keto Puran Poli is an irresistible dessert or snack that combines indulgence with healthy eating.
Start by preparing the filling: Soak the chana dal in water for at least 2 hours. Drain and pressure cook it until soft and well-cooked.
Once cooked, mash the chana dal thoroughly or blend it into a smooth paste.
In a non-stick pan, cook the dal paste over medium heat, adding erythritol, cardamom powder, nutmeg powder, and vanilla extract. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens and separates from the sides of the pan. Set aside to cool.
For the dough: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, and salt.
Gradually add warm water to the flour mixture, kneading it gently until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, you may add a bit more psyllium husk.
Divide the dough into equal-sized small balls.
Take one dough ball and flatten it slightly. Place a small portion of the prepared chana dal filling in the center. Carefully seal the edges to encase the filling.
Gently roll out the filled dough ball into a thin disc, similar to a flatbread. Repeat for remaining dough and filling.
Heat ghee in a frying pan over medium heat and cook each puran poli until golden brown on both sides, adding more ghee as necessary.
Serve warm. Enjoy the Keto Puran Poli as a delicious dessert or snack!
