In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot starch, baking soda, and sea salt.
In another small bowl, beat the egg and mix it with honey, vanilla extract, and the 0.25 cup of melted coconut oil. Stir until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, adding the water slowly to form a dough. The dough should be firm yet pliable.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into thin logs about 6 inches in length.
Heat 1 cup of coconut oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until hot (around 350°F or 175°C). You can test the temperature by dropping a small piece of dough into the oil; if it sizzles and rises to the top, it is ready.
Carefully place 2-3 dough sticks into the hot oil, frying them until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the fried dough sticks using a slotted spoon, and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Repeat the frying process with the remaining dough sticks.
Serve the Paleo Crispy Fried Dough Sticks warm, optionally with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
