Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Hot water
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 4 tablespoons Ghee or butter
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt.
Add the hot water to the dry ingredients and mix well until a dough forms. It should be soft yet pliable.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball. Flatten each ball slightly to form discs.
Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan or microwave and set aside.
On a clean surface, roll out each disc into a thin circle using a rolling pin, about 6 inches in diameter.
Brush the surface of each rolled-out dough with melted coconut oil.
Fold the circle in half to form a semi-circle, then brush with more coconut oil, and fold again to make a triangle shape.
Roll the folded triangle dough out gently until it's about 1/8 inch thick.
Heat a flat pan or tawa over medium heat. Add a little ghee or butter and swirl to coat the surface.
Place one rolled out roti on the hot pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until bubbles start to appear and the edges begin to lift.
Flip the roti and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes. Brush the top side lightly with ghee or butter for flavor.
Using two spatulas or your fingers wrapped in a clean kitchen towel, gently scrunch and scrunch (fluff) the roti to get that 'buss up shut' texture.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough portions.
Serve warm with your favorite low carb curry or stew.
