In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, flaxseeds, chia seeds, and hemp seeds.
Add the grated coconut to the dry ingredients and mix well to combine.
Stir in the stevia powder and salt to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Gradually add water, a little at a time, while mixing continuously with your hand. The mixture should achieve a crumbly texture that holds together when pressed without being too wet.
Fill the base of the puttu maker with water and bring it to a boil over medium heat.
Place a small layer of grated coconut in the puttu makerβs cylindrical mold (the puttu kutty), followed by a layer of the prepared flour mixture. Repeat the layers until the mold is full, finishing with a final layer of grated coconut.
Attach the mold to the base and steam the puttu for about 8-10 minutes or until cooked through.
Carefully remove the puttu from the mold using a spoon. Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy as a standalone meal with a curry or chutney.
