Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Tapioca starch
- 1 tablespoon Ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Water
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 2 cups Avocado oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca starch, ground flaxseed, baking soda, and salt. Mix until well blended.
Slowly add water to the dry ingredients, mixing continuously to form a dough. The dough should be firm yet pliable. Adjust water quantity if necessary.
Divide the dough into 12 equal parts and roll them into balls.
Flatten each ball slightly using your palm and then roll it out with a rolling pin to form small discs, about 3 inches in diameter.
Heat avocado oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil should be adequately hot for frying but not smoking.
Gently slide one of the rolled discs into the hot oil. Use a slotted spoon to press lightly as it cooks, encouraging it to puff up.
Fry each puri until golden brown on both sides, about 1-2 minutes per side.
Remove the fried puri from the oil and drain it on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Repeat the frying process for the remaining puris.
Serve the Paleo puris warm with your choice of side dish or chutney.
