In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca flour, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all dry ingredients are well combined.
Gradually add warm water to the dry ingredients while mixing. Use your hands to knead the mixture into a dough. The dough should be soft but not sticky. If the dough feels too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
Divide the dough into 4 equal parts, rolling each part into a smooth ball. Cover them with a damp cloth to prevent drying out.
Flatten each dough ball slightly between your palms and place it between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, gently roll out each dough ball into a circular shape about 6 inches in diameter. Carefully peel off the top sheet of parchment paper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of ghee or coconut oil to the pan, spreading it evenly.
Carefully transfer one rolled-out dough onto the hot skillet, peeling away the remaining parchment paper.
Cook the parantha for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown in spots, then flip it over using a spatula. Add more ghee or coconut oil if needed and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Repeat the process for the remaining dough balls.
Serve the paleo paranthas warm with your favorite paleo-friendly curry or side dish.
