In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
Gradually add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients while stirring. Mix until a soft dough forms. The dough should be pliable but not sticky.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape them into small balls.
Place a ball of dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out gently into a small circle, about 4 inches in diameter and 1/8-inch thick.
Heat ghee or coconut oil in a deep frying pan or wok over medium heat.
Carefully slide the rolled puri into the hot oil. It should puff up within seconds. Gently press the puri with a slotted spoon to help it puff evenly.
Fry the puri until golden brown, flipping once, about 1 minute per side.
Remove the puri from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Serve hot with your favorite curry or side dish.
