Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix until evenly distributed.
Add the sesame seeds to the dry mixture and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, and water until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula until a dough forms. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the psyllium husk to absorb some moisture.
Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten into a disc shape about 1/2-inch thick.
Place the discs on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
Brush the top lightly with water and sprinkle with a few extra sesame seeds, pressing them gently to stick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the kaak is golden brown and firm to touch.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
